I'm depressed, need something to make sense in my life?

Sorry to hear about your plight mate. Don't commit suicide, you won't feel any better after your dead. Also drugs are highly unlikely to help you out, maybe for like a day or two, but then it'll suck even worse. Don't worry, there are good girls out there, you just have to find them. Usually they're the ones with morale standards like honesty, and patience though.

Sounds like your probably not feeling good about yourself, especially with the girl troubles and flunking exams and what not. I've been there too. Trouble with us humans is we all want to feel needed and important. So you need to find a place or group of people that actually depend on you and who feel your important. Work (whether it's paid or not), is actually very valuable because it will fullfill this need. Especially if your motivation for doing that work comes from a particularly good motive like wanting to help others.

Sounds like that that's what the institution did for you. Find something similar and it'll probably help out a lot. There's all sorts of things like that: church, mental health care centers (they usually love it when people volunteer to help them out), YMCA, etc...


That's one of the reasons I involve myself in things like programming games and things, and it seems to work and does me a lot of good. (Plus I get to learn how to program better.)

Also I feel like I wouldn't be honest if I didn't mention that a belief in God really helps me cope with life. I should add, a correct understanding of God helps. A lot of people think of God like a genie who grants wishes, when really he's more like a dad. He cares enough about people to let them have a sucky time occasionally (if that makes sense.) Life isn't necessarily suppose to be all kicks and giggles. Life really is a trial, to see if you're ready for the next life, and we're being tested to see how well we'll perform. Of course that doesn't mean you'll believe me, if you want to find out for yourself you'll have to ask the Big Man himself and maybe do some of your own research.

Anyway, hope you feel better mate regardless if you feel my answer was useful.
