I need major help with my life?

Question

Hi, thanks for reading this. I have always been a very happy and very spiritual person. However here lately I have been extremly depressed. I often find myself thinking about dying (not in a suicidil way, but thinking it would be better if I were dead). I have found it very difficult to even read my scriptures or pray. I do not like being this way but I feel like a failure and I feel like everything I touch falls to peices. Just some examples of what has happened in the last month.......... I lost my job and cannot find employment, my boyfriend broke up with me, I got kicked out of a very important class, I am having alot of problems with disrespect from the guy on the fire dpt i am with, and my dad is trying to get custody of my little sister cuz i let her ride alone in a car with her boyfriend one time. I am sure none of this stuff sounds important or major but I am losing motivation to keep trying.
Please respond.

Answer 1

How about you talk to a counselor or someone at a church.
They are there to help you... that is their job.

And keep in mind that God is there for you and just pray to Him. He will give you the hope and strength to go on.

Answer 2

Ok...I may have a lot to say about your situation. I believe in God as much as I believe that Oxygen keeps us going. Girl you are being attacked spiritually. This is something that is happening to try and steer you as far away from God as possible. So READ your scripture. And pray harder. Your faith may be the only thing keeping you non-suicidal. Everyone has dealt w/ stuff like this, if you are a believer you know what you need to do. If you are not you would simply take it as having a very bad month. Just pick up the pieces, and find someone to pray with. God bless

I'm really sorry about what's happening.But everyone has days or even months like that.About the job,I would stay away from even trying to get another job for like a week or so,then when everything gets a little better,start looking.About the boyfriend thing, you seem really nice,and if he were to dump you it sounds like he missed out on a great girl.There will be Mr.right some day.But maybe he wasn't the one.And if you find it hard to pray,try praying a lot more than usual and ask him if he can help you with what your going threw.And you said something about you sister.I think that you shouldn't try to fight for custody. You can call her a couple of times every day,plan special dinners with her,plan special shopping times with her,or even just invite her over to your house just to hang out.I wish you the best of luck.

How you feel and think is important! You are having a bad spin of things right now, all at one time! Things happen like that sometimes, as your finding out. But, try and not look at it all together, deal with each one separate-on your own time. Each thing may not seem so bad, and may be for the best in the long run. Change in ones life is good actually. When change takes place in a persons life, consider it stepping stones of wisdom in your life. Your on over load right now, so you have every right to feel the way you do, just be patient with yourself. Let the shock of it all happening at once go away, and I am positive you'll land flat on your feet again a stronger person! Good luck!!!

Hello, i know how you fill cause it happen to me a couple of years back when i had only one kid. I felt like no one loved me and i was always a failure at what i do i even felt that my boyfriend didn't love me too, my little girl was a few months old, and i was young. now baby when you get like that take some time to your-self keep reading your bible cause that's your only friend right now okay. Now all that other stuff that's happen like your job well find something you are really good at and take that and us it cause all it takes is prayer sweetie cause that's what keeps your spirt up is prayer. now by your boy friend breaking up with you forget him cause he don't deserve a good woman like you any ways. cause men like him come a dime a dozen. now by you kicked out of your class well all i can say is find a subject that you like and that will give you more credits than the other one take that okay. now by your dad blaming you for your sister reaction then that wasn't your fault cause she have a mine of her own it's not likeyou put a gun to her head to get in the car with her boyfriend, that's her problem if you thought she was in trouble then you could have took action but other wise let it be. and that guy that don't respect you well ignore that cause it 's just male shovenise. and girl keep your head up keep trying and never give up that's what the devil wants you to do and that's to give up but don't.keep praying and reading your bible,and everything will be alright cause god got you baby no one else and always love yourself first okay.

I was at that point not to long ago. I started by living just to keep everyone else pissed off. I know it's a bad reason to live but it is a reason. As for losing faith. I'll give you what little I have if you need it. I know things suck right now but if you stay with it alot of good will come your way. This life is a test for the next one so don't give up. I know that you will do great things with your life.

Hey, sorry u've had such bad luck. i've had my share of it too. what helped me through a lot of it was getting out. i had a special place on our land that i would go to think about the problems that i was having. and just getting away from everyone and just sit there and think in peace really helped me out. just pray bout things and hopefully everything will work out for u. but no matter how much bad luck i had i never gave up and its worked out some. just hang in there and never give up for anything. i hope i've helped u out some. p.s. getting on medicine will only help cover up the pain. it won't cure it. and if u need someone to talk to then talk to the Lord cause no matter what's going on, he's always listening to u.

No wonder you're feeling down. That's a lot to be going on in one person's life all at the same time. Take a deep breath, go out for a walk (incorporate exercise into your life - you'll feel better), and talk to a friend. You need to be able to vent. Talk to anyone.
Take care of yourself.

Answer 9

take it easy baby, don't blame yourself for all these things , there is nothing in your hands that you could make and you didn't , you are carrying all these sad incidents on your back , try not to be so pessimistic , be sure that you couldn't prevent what had happened , about your b/f that you have a lot of problems with him , I think he should support you during these bad times you are in , instead of start fighting with you as well , if he couldn't understand your feeling , and try to help you overcome your depression , I think you should take a brake to reevaluate your relationship , and about your job , just try to look for the suitable job for you that would help you and make you more optimistic , try to bray for God , that would rest your soul and make you feel comfortable . think of living a happy life instead of death .

You know, you need to turn to the Lord. Ask Him for help-he will always answer you. Remember, we are sinners-we deserve Hell (although it may seem harsh, it is not, not to God! He is perfect.) Imagine yourself coverd in blood. Wouldent you feel a relief to get it off and put on clean clothes? Thats what Jesus offers you-a fresh start. Trust me, I should know. I have been such a criminal UNTIL Jesus turned me to himself. When you are saved, you get the comfort of the holy spirit, and believe it or not, Joy. Real Joy. Email me if you have any questions! I would be happy to help you in your time of need. :)
