I am feeling like there's no reason to go on... I have no motivation to keep living... Just too much pain and hurt and loneliness... It feels like nobody really cares. I just wish I could feel better, but I don't know how. I do pray about it, but I don't know how to stop the bad feelings. And I see no reason why I should go on... I'm so depressed and hurt and without purpose.
Please pray for me.
Why do you want to end your life? we care Sister... please do not choose the wrong path

I am praying for you, please don't choose to end your life. I've been through the same feelings, have been hospitalized because of it and seriously harmed myself, I have lost my best friend to suicide, I can honestly say it is the wrong path to take. Please call someone from the church and talk to them, let them know that you need someone to be with you right now and talk to you. God's power and love is stronger than anything you are going through right now, and He will deliver you. Ask Him to wrap His arms around you and hold you; he has never failed to do that for me when I needed someone to hold me. I love you sister, keep holding on.

most disasterous thing about suicide is 100% of everyone who commits it, regrets it! over my life there have been times when I've felt I couldn't possibly get any lower and thought about suicide.....and 100% of those times as I look back were not nearly as bad as my mind was portraying them to be.....thus I don't trust my mind to make anymore lifeending decisions, since I realize the mind is an untrustworthy companion. time always seems to change how my mind perceives things........give yourself some time.......I pray that God would destroy any suicidal spirits who whisper in your ear and try's to convince you to end your life. I believe its those who satan wants to destroy the most are the most valueable to humanity and to God.

You're not without purpose! You may not SEE your purpose yet but I promise you, I swear to you, you have a positive purpose in this life.
Please, please, please call a mental health outline and talk to somebody. It will help! We all need some help sometimes, it isn't unusual or bad to reach out, like you have here...but having a live person in real time, who is trained in the field and is familiar with issues that you are coping with will help you immeasurably. Again, you might not feel or see it immediately, but it's that contact itself that can make the difference.
Prayer will help, but sometimes people become so immersed in prayer that they neglect to take the action that is needed to pull themselves over the bumps...so mix up your prayer with ACTION. Even if it's small action. Walk to the store. Call a friend or relative (or the HOTLINE!) Catch a movie, hang out at the park, visit a homeless (or animal!) shelter...do something!
Just physically moving to a different spot (going from inside to outside) can help. Instead of mulling over the reasons not to live, just give yourself one thing to do, and do it. Put everything on the shelf, and do ONE THING.
Question...do you have a job? Are you a student? Why do you think you don't have a purpose?
There is a national collaborative hotline called 2*1*1...I suggest you contact the nearest one. It's a hotline with myriad resources...you tell them what you need help with, and they will hit their data base hard and transfer you to the person you need to talk to.
So if you don't want to talk to a mental health hotline, for example, and you're depressed because you need medical care, they can refer you to the appropriate person to help you with that. If you need child care, they can do that...it's a really wonderful collaboration!
http://www.211.org/
that's the link, type in your zip and a little pop-up comes up saying "call 2*1*1" lol...I typed in my zip just to check, in case there were some blind areas, but it came right up.
Good luck and God bless you!

Praying for your strength, hope, peace, and healing 
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible,
Look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us,
That in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent,
But with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will,
Which is Love and Mercy itself.
~ The Divine Mercy Prayer

There has been some wonderful advice on these posts, listen to them and see how much they care, listen to Alliebaba, and call the hotlines suggested, whatever you do try not to be alone, can you contact someone from your family or do you attend a church, is there someone you can contact that you can talk to and be with from your fellowship to let them know how you feel. Nobody is an island we all need each other, that is why we come on here to fellowship and upbuild each other, keep each other going through difficult times, there is always someone to talk to on here.
Pray to our Lord as you have never prayed before, we will all be praying for you. You are loved, you are precious, important to the Lord, he wants you to choose life, not death, he will lead you in triumph, your power is made perfect in weakness.
Lord please help this precious beloved child, heal her pain and despair, you are with those who are crushed and broken in spirit, lift her up like an eagle above all her pain and troubles, work a miracle in her life Lord and help her see her life is so precious to you. In Jesus name Amen.

It's hard to say this, but people (those closest to you ) can get very hurt by a suicide attempt yet alone a suicide. They can feel like you didn't care enough about them to go on. And you know this isn't true. You care about them, just not yourself right now. But the pain you give them will be hard for you to make better if you survive. Don't make it worse. And the pain you give them may be forever either way.

There is only one reason to go, and that is God, the best friend you could ever have who really cares for you. Don't rely on your emotions but on God.

Ziggy, if God want's you to have the kind of purpose the World acknowledges as such, he will send it to you in his own time. In the meantime, the sovereign purpsoe of all our lives is as real for you as it is for everyone else; namely, to accept whatever God places in your path each day, from the moment you awake. What a spiritual writer has called, the sacrament of the present moment. Not so much one day at a time as one minute at a time. It is better to put piece of scrap paper in the waste-paper basket, if that is what God would want of you at a particular time, than to give your body to be burnt at the stake, when it does not accord with his will.
"... but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope."And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." Romans 5:3-5
If we have hope, we have everything... the sun the moon and the stars. A wonderful anecdote of Solzhenitzin on that subject, which I'll try to dig up for you, tomorrow.

Ziggy, please seek help immediately. Call a hotline as someone said, a friend, neighbor, family, pastor, priest, whoever. Please do not remain alone.
God loves you and He will see you through this. I am praying for you, my friend. Please PM if you need someone to talk to. I understand this feeling and have open ears.
God bless you and protect you.
