oh my god. This video hit the spot.
I quit my first job due to burnout, have spinal back pain at the age of 26, and broke up with my girlfriend last week.
I chose to quit my job because I saw myself obsessed with it, and only that. I also felt isolated as I began to meet less and less people, and I was even shocked that some who I thought were good people had really dark sides inside them.
It's been almost a week being off work, and I always described it as a void inside me to my therapist, and that I kept trying to fill it in with people, hobbies, and recently my job. I hated how gullible I was in the past, and reject every single moment before my mid-20s.
Even my girlfriend, she's such a wonderful person. She even offered to be at my side a bit more as I'm going through a lot. But I saw myself dragging her into my problems, to fill that emptiness inside me. I didn't want her to be in pain, as she's already feeling sorry, and chose to let her go. What I'm feeling now is something I should face alone, and hopefully, we'll meet again as friends like we promised.
In the meantime, I recently started to meet people who I can comfortably open up to, and some of which can relate to my past. It felt comforting, and even started to remind what I was passionate in the past. I still think I'm wasting time and that I should do something in my life, but now I see I can do something; find who I truly am.
Sorry for the long comment, I'm so emotional nowadays. Wanted to say thank you for the great video.

Ive felt empty and lost since i could remember. I hardly knew my mother she abandoned me when i was like 5 years old my father was horrible. Used to keep me locked in my room all the time taking my tv and toys away for weeks at a time he was physical and verbally abusive the sick thing is that i used to like the beatings becasue i got used to it. i can get into everything but itl be too long and i dont rlly like talking about my past or feelings but now im 22 years of age and the emptyness shell of what i am needs closure but i can never get it people say build relationships but i can never have a relationship or a friend ship because i never knew what warmth or owt feels like all i know is pain, hell wnd coldness so when people say you will get better no i wont becasue nobody has lived in my shoes but hopefully one day i feel happy and at peace.

The number 4 felt so deep for me it's like I've found something important that i was never looking for. I have always wondered why at a lot of times i feel like i can just easily end my life whenever i want to or whatever the reason may be no matter how small or big it is or whenever i feel bored. Which kind of seemed off to me but also felt right in my heart like i wasn't losing anything. Now because of this 4th reason it kinda made sense as to why I'm feeling this way, there are things i liked but after i got it my life seems to be done. I never really had any dreams that is so huge that it would take me years to achieve, I never had a goal like being a doctor/lawyer/teacher. etc but i know i can be one if i just choose but I'm not motivated enough to dream of something or to have any kind of goal. Which is also why i feel empty.

Im on vacation from school right now. I only spend time at home, watching tv, scrolling on my phone, doing exercise and learning english (it isn't my mother tongue. Even though i do all this things i feel like there's something that i'm missing. School is the only place where i can socialize, laugh and be with my friends. At home i feel lonely and it's even more hard to figure out what career i want to study (it's my last year before college. I've been progressing since last year, improving my mental health and self-steem but right now i'm isolated at home. I want to go out but my parents don't let me to. I also have to take care of my siblings and it always makes me feel stressed. Being at home makes me feel upset: (

I'm going to share something with everyone here, I work in healthcare and all my co workers are very well off. wife, kids, money, looks, funny, the whole package it seems like. But when I see myself, it's tough to see any of that.
One quote I read that was life changing for me that I really need to follow again is. tough decisions=easy life. easy decisions=tough life. It's true. I've lived on both sides. Right now I'm having a hard life. Time to change that.

I frequently feel empty but what I discovered recently is that the emptiness lingers particularly after Im done watching a romance drama. Whether it has a sad or happy ending, itll leave me empty either way. I indulge so much in this world/fantasy that I become attached to it and feel vacant without it. I crave for the main characters love story and intimacy, wishing that I would have their relationship. Thats the type of emptiness I personally deal with.

Ppl always have me but I have no one. At least no one I rather share certain things with and Ive just realized that today. That one person to talk about anything and everything with who dont switch uo their minds on you who you can trust who is smart in decision making and giving advice. I dont have that person. And its no necessarily a boyfriend but more just my person /friend

The only things that keep me going from yk suicide is school, and some friends and a little bit of my family because school is more fun than my life, I dont want my friends or family to get sad or hurt themselves over my death and i just feel so, empty, depressed, tired, and etc. I wanna cry but I think I used up all of my tears.

I still don't find anything inside me, like who am I, I don't know myself. I was so cheerful and happy when I was 10 year old, but now slowly day by day I feel like I am nothing but a useless body. I actually don't know the reason. Now, I am 12 year old but still empty inside, it all started since my 11th birthday.

I feel like all the reasons above I have great friends i feel like i am burdening and a boyfriend who i love but doesnt understand me nor try to.
My lack of purpose is probably the main component though. I jabe dreams i have no motivation nor way of achieving.

Kind of sucks that I started being depressed at 15 and it still lingers at 22. As in, every day I would wake up disappointed that I havent died in my sleep. Every. Single. Day.

Psychedelic's definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source here.
