Hi Melody, I suppose that it is a bit of a paradox that we live in such a fast paced world full of technology and yet boredom and inner turmoil is very prevalent.
You know a lot of people perhaps mostly young people pretend a lot and put on a front so as not to appear different or out of place with everyone else and unknown to anyone they are unhappy within.
Life seems to grind to a halt at times and every day seems much like the last, in the average American and European home young people have rooms full of gadgets,PS2,Ipods,Internet and MTV and yet there is a hunger that these cannot satisfy.
I remember the first time that I read these words from scripture which said, `Our hearts were made for God and they will not rest until they rest in Him` and I believe that there is something really solid in this.
I do know that life has a funny habit of changing and turning in a new direction when we least expect it, and sometimes the best that we can do is to hold in there and wait,you know something will alway`s come along when we least expect it too.
The only thing we can do is to fight our discouragement and soldier on because we really do have a lot to be thankful for and we take things for granted.

I was on the Internet and searched for empty and lonely and this is what I came across, so here we go. Lately I have been just feeling like I can’t stand this empty feeling I got inside. I feel completely alone in a room full of people. I have had a lot of added stress lately and I am hoping that that could be the cause of it, but I don’t think so. I think this has been a long time coming and I just don’t know where to go from here. I am a guy and I have been sitting here watching these sappy *** movies (chick flixs) and I don’t know if it is helping or making me feel worse inside. I feel like just taking off and heading somewhere else, but I know running is not the answer. I will just be lonely and empty somewhere else also. I sit and wish and hope that something amazing is gonna happen to me and I will snap out of this slump, but I don’t know how much longer I can take this feeling. I know this prolly don’t help you much but this is where I'm gonna dump my crap as well and leave it at that. I am luthern as far as religion goes and I have prayed to god to take this feeling away. I have made it this far because of that I believe.Hopefully he will not pile anything on to this cause I dont think I can take anymore. So if nothing else you can know you are not the only one who feels like this. Hopefully this will help you feel not so alone. I am also hopeing that writing this will help ease some of mine as well.

If you think your life is too repetitious... change it. It's hard to do when you're feeling down but well worth the effort in the end. How about some voluteer work? Taking some kind of class, painting, dance?? Start taking a walk a few days a week. Getting out into the world can help to make you feel less lonely too.

Answer 5

Well, let me tell you something: a dress can't give you inner peace or hope, money can't buy happiness, things only last for a while, a man can't please you all the time, he will always fall short, but there is someone who can give you inner peace with the knowlege that no matter what happens he will always be there for you, he will always forgive you, always Love you and Never fail you. If that sound good to you, something you are desiring in your life then I suggest buying a Bible (NIV) New Internation Version is one of the easiest to understand. Because Jesus is the answer. I have known many people to feel the way you do, empty. I have myself had a lot of feelings of worthlessness and had many things happen in my life and my families life that were hard and depressing but God always came through for us and he WILL you too. If you earnestly seek him, he Will be there. I know this for 100% sure. I would love to share more with you. If you are interested please e-mail me.

The one thing we can all look forward to is tomorrow. Why tomorrow? It's because tomorrow will be a new day, a day filled with God's new mercies, a day when we'll see new faces, a new laugh perhaps, everything new and unheard of. A new beginning awaits tomorrow. Answers to God's promises await tomorrow. Joy awaits in the morning. I certainly believe the best is yet to come, today might not have been the best day but it was so that tomorrow may be better and who knows the best. I sleep everynight being content, because I have come to know Christ, I have come to know the only High Priest who understands, the one and only Christ who sympathises with my weaknesses. You know why? It's because he's walked on the same street that I'm walking.

This is very common for a 16 year old. You are experiencing hormonal changes as your body grows and matures. You need to focus! What do you want to do with your life? Where are you going to college? How do you want to impact the world? You are here for a reason. What is it? You need inspiration. Read books that can broaden your horizons. Get a "cause". There are lots of great charities that need good help. Get out of the house and get busy. Your life is waiting!

Answer 8

There is a big difference between venting and wanting to know the true purpose for your life. Are you just looking for a temporary break from the monotony of life, or do you want more?

Answer 9

are you a child of God? if you are sometimes it is very difficult to have these feelings. it seems so wrong when we serve a God of hope and newness. But the other truth is that He never promised there would be times of dispair. But it only a season. Hang on and just keep on praying . He may be leading you to greater things and the devil is trying to opress you to stop God's plan. But we know who wins God!
Hope thing s get better soon for you. you are not alone though.alot of people feel this from time to time. If it keeps on being a prolbem I suggest you find someone u can trust to talk to.

Answer 10

I feel that way too sometimes.

I think because I was brainwashed into thinking I have to feel that way if I don't do everything exactly how someone wants.

Guess what, I am me, and I have to have a life too, not be a puppet on a string.

Be strong, cause I admire how strong you are to admit your weakness. I felt that too before, & also depression that I tried to kill myself, because I was screamed at all day every day for so long, I felt like I am nothing.

Thank you for making me feel better.

I hope one day I meet a really nice girl who won't holler at me all day.
