First, if you get rid of you then we would not have a "nightlight" any more. You are unique, the only you there is, so don't take that away from us. Who knows, you may one day be the person that finds a cure for AIDS, or have some other major breakthrough. Just as important, don't take that away from family and your new bf. What a shock to their lives this would be. What a hole you would leave.
These things that you are experiencing, how truly far reaching are they? Give yourself time to come up with a new strategy, since it seems that you have met a roadblock in your path. Another word that will hopefully comfort you, you are not alone, most everyone on this board has been where you are (at what seems like the bottom). I encourage you to find a good ear and an even better heart that will hear you and help you carry this (not your boyfriend, but someone that might act as a mentor). I would also encourage you to talk to your doctor about this. Get them to help you. It may be that you need a little chemical help for a short time (psychotropic medication). Ask them to consider depression (it hits many, so don't despair).
Good luck, God bless, and hang on - it will get better. You're just in a "storm" right now, but the "forecast" is calling for "brighter days!!"

Of course it is, nightlight; you never know what today/tomorrow has in store.
Yeah, it sounds like Life is giving you a hard time right now. Realities and dreams never seem to match up, or fall in your favor.
It never does.
You're looking back on your life and it seems to be a waste. That's sounds like you're having a mid-life crisis (don't worry, I had one at the age of 22 and I'm now 48 so you can't even believe in the term "mid-life").
So you've had some bad luck in the Romance Dept.: hey, it happens.
You have to say to yourself, "that was then and this is now".
You have to stop living in the past and deal with the here-and-now.
You'll have to figure out, for yourself, what you both need and want, and the differences between the two (we all need to work or do something for money to pay the bills, yet can everybody be Musicians? I think not...)
Murdering yourself is not the answer.
Finding out why God put you on this earth, and understanding your destiny, with and within Him, is the answer (as it is written in Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.).
My prayers,
DR. Von§

hmm, not terribly unfamiler to me for the most part ( not all of it but some of it ).
please take what I am about to say seriously and don't just blow it off. I am a guy and I try to fix things so if it seems alittle blunt I am sorry and that is not what I intend,also I am speaking form a christian point of view which I belive is true and right but if it is confusing you that might be why
well here goes
the biggest problem with life, your life, my life, all of life, is that we see no reason that it should not be bright and happy. we americans are perticly bad about this, and when it goes bad we think why God why me?! but the truth is that God never onece sayed that he would give us a bright and easy life. In fact for christians he sayed the oppsite that life would be hard and at times crule but that he would be there and we would not be going thrue it alone, which I think would be worse than anything else. I am sorry that life is bad and difficult and am extreamly happy that suicide is not an opption because it does not solve any problem. after you die then what, eather you go to be with God if a christian or you go to hell which is much worse than anything here on earth. Please relize that I am not making light of your situation but am trying to praise you ( in my own clumsy way) for not going down that path. the only way out is through God, sounds a little off the wall I know but I also know from my own invisible enemies that it is still the truth with out God I would never make it out of bead in the morning and tha my friend is the fact of life.
as for some of the other stuff, yes you are worse than you think but God does not care and his grace abounds ( enought to cover the worst of us ). no your heart was not always broken, and I pray that some day it is put togeather again. untill then gard it and only give it to those your have hade time to build a relation ship with i.e. a friend who you have known long enough to know what their charictor is like and to know that they would not hurt you on purpose or just because they can.
it is good to fear God but, I hope it becomes a fear that leads you to him and if it does you will never be alone again. I hope this helps, and know that you are not strange because of this, it is some thing that we all strugle with at one time or another.

First of all..."You are not alone" please remember this!
Second ...The darkest hour of night...is just one hour before dawn.
Last /but not least...
You "ARE SOMEBODY"...just remember God has a place for you on this earth.
You are a undoubtedly a person who has experienced some problems in life at an early age! Some that you do not want to "let be known".
At your age 24, think about this... I know of a friend of mine that had a beautiful child a little girl, she was married to a doctor and lived two blocks from my residence.
The "in laws" of the doctors residence, were just across the street from them. So on many occasions (being in a low travel area ) they visited daily...sometimes often!
One day while crossing the street after her parents, an older residence of the community (84) ran over the little girl that killed her instantly.
I have sympathy ... so how do you feel?

I am just coming out of what you are going through Believe me, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You are not alone. You have friends that will just listen. If you need a friend I'm here. You are God's child and Satan will bring whatever he can to try to derail you. Read the book of Job. Give it to God. Just say God I give everything to you and don't worry. It may take you one day or it may take you a few years like it did me but you will have inner peace and gain the strength and emotional health to be the everything God has planned for you.

You are not alone Nightlife. All of us who hurt beside you feel you. We understand. You have so much time ahead of you, enough to break it all up, then put it back together again and more than once. Nothing is as bad as it seems and there will come a time when you'll be stronger than ever, having gathered the sum of your experiences. Only people like you can attain wisdom and true happiness, because believe it or not you are so deeply in touch with life. God loves you and we love you and we want you to take your time to heal. As long as you need. Chin up girl, you'll get through this...everything bad passes. My prayers and my thoughts are with you tonight.

This worked for me when I went through the same thing..
When you wake up in the morning force yourself straight out of bed.
Get into the habbit of doing this.
Straight up and at em girly.
Start tomorrow.
Even if it is the last thing you want to do on this earth, and you want to lie there in a comfy doveted cocoon, thinking about the same ole painful things - looping and going around and in your mind..
You ain't figured whatever it is out yet - so just let it this once beat you and stop obsessing over it.
Enough is enough.
Up and at em.
Don't give yourself an opportunity to get yourself down, when you are half asleep and semi conscous in the morning.
It can really bugger up your whole day.

Well everyone deserves to live. So just keep holding on and defiantly keep praying maybe you should talk to someome, either a friend or maybe even someone professional and no one deserves what you are going through. You are not bad at all If you keep hanging on and you will get through this and it is worth to keep living
I really hope things are good from now on!
The best of luck!
