Struggling with Loneliness and Purposelessness

Piper11

What currently is something that keeps you going? I have no friends, my only family is my dad and he works so much. I don't work/ don't go to school so i have little to zero social interaction. I know my dad would be upset if I were to kms, but I can't keep living the life I'm living just for someone I barely see. Does anyone have tips on things to make me feel like I have any sort of purpose to stay on this Earth?

      The Blessing by Kari Jobe. Google it and watch the music video all the way through….it’s very uplifting and encouraging to watch and listen to the words…. I’m hoping it will help you…

      look at local events on facebook, there’s almost certainly something you’d be interested in. getting involved in local politics is a great way to meet people and feel more purposeful, pm me if you’re interested in that and i can help you get started!

      I don’t have much advice because I’m kinda in the same boat family wise. The only thing that has really kept me here the last 8 years are my two dogs. If I didn’t still have them, I’d be long gone. Do you have a furry friend that you can relax with/pet/love on?

        @Anona3672 I do and he's kind of the only thing keeping me here as well, I don't want to make him depressed like I am, i love him with my whole heart and he does everything to make me happy, but its still so hard, I don't want to be here. :(
