Hello. Those who are strong in the Lord can you ask God what the hell I should do with my life because I feel lost and deeply depressed. I'm literally drinking vodka now and I kinda want to kill myself because life seems hopeless. Sorry for being too dark and morbid, it's just how I feel. Drugs are my only escape. Not proud of it, just all I got. Thank you.

Been feeling the same recently. Not sure what to do about anything. I stopped drinking bc it just makes me more hopeless, i have been going back outside, getting off the devices, praying more, spending time with family & friends. I have to remind myself there only 1 way you can walk a mile, 1 step at a time. I'll pray for you Fren! 🙏
We could ask God but you have to make the choice to accept Him as your personal Lord and Savior. The world is trying their best to get us down at the moment with nuclear war and comms everywhere. Stand fast in the Lord and your feet will never falter even as the world shakes at its foundations. God loves you far too much to keep you in this condition. Just ask him to come into your heart today and I can assure you that you will feel infinitely better and the total opposite of what you feel right now. Suicide is never an option. If you are depressed and you kill yourself, that makes all of your friends depressed too. That's not how God intended humans to live. That is how Satan intends humans to live. Don't give in to Satan, and run toward Jesus!
This exactly.
God bless you, friend.
This.
My fren I will be praying for u. May I ask what ur #prayer life is like.. I only ask because prayer was one of main things that helped me rise from addiction(meth and heroin) I would encourage you to try and find an irl church. Secondly if willing we would love to have u at Prayer Garden. We have many addicts and people going through the same sort of situation. Life is rough right now. It's best to be around loving, Christ centered people. That's what we are. Ur welcome to join us we would love to be part of your support group. If discord isnt your thing, I am willing to talk 1 on 1 in PM with u and just help support u however I can. No pressure either way but however I can help I am here. https://discord.gg/sngRVxKtyU
Btw your honesty is greatly appreciated dont be ashamed. U just made a huge step. I truly love you my fren and just know u are not alone. Although I never met u in real life, u are part of this journey with me and for that we are now family
Thank you! :)
Well, you're not wrong. Life seems hopeless because the life they are offering you IS hopeless. When you're captured in that life that really IS nothing to live for. You have to connect with the future that is emerging and truly and honestly believe that THE BEST IS YET TO COME. Spend some time visualizing that world, and spend some time reading the links here which point to our successes both now and in the future, and, if you want a challenge that will also help, get researching and digging and get posting those links and if they're good and mainly on Q, I'll sticky them!
Please don't let it descend into alcoholism... that's what I did. You can do this but you can't do it alone. I'm in AA. Doing the work, even taking another (and much more chronic alcoholic) friend to AA with me. Seven months sober this week. I was drinking 1/2 bottle of whiskey a day. Explains why sometimes I was such an ass, sorry to anyone dealing with me during that time. Modding is stressful. BUT, now, things are better because WE ARE WINNING, so fucking hard!
The entire world is changing, so let the changes affect you at the local level, too. Focus on our successes, and focus on moving yourself and your life forward. We can't wait for Hillary to get arrested anymore before moving forward. Face it, our troops are destroying the Deep State in Ukraine, the CCP minions are falling, but you can't let "target lock" get you fixated on world events. You have to make sure to move forward in your life. Unfortunately (and fortunately) for me, it's moving a marriage that wasn't working to where it belongs as well and getting into different things and changing my social setup and refocusing on the friends with the values that fit me better.
Love u cats. U have a tough job that few truly understand. Keep up the good work. Any past anger or mistakes are forgiven. We move forward with the future in mind. Proud of u for those 7 months brother. That is huge. God is using u in a mighty way. I have nothing but love and respect for u. Your in my DAILY prayers

Thank you! :)
Imagine being totally unhelpful.
Now now brother. What seems unhelpful to u might be a world of help to others. We all Express ourselves differently. I thought his comment came from a loving place. We are all a @team. The amazing thing about this place is u get many different views yet all working towards the same goal
May the Lord Jesus Christ, who loves you so much He died to pay for and redeem you from the mess you have found yourself in, fill you with His peace and strength and draw you deeply to Himself. He delights in restoring what appears to be hopeless. 🙏
You are in a hole (depression) and digging it deeper with a major depressant, alcohol. Stop digging. If there is a real reason for feeling hopeless, like you lost your job/lover/health, address that instead of your feelings. If there is no clear reason, just feelings of dread, address that by doing little things that give pleasure--pet a dog, clean up some mess that annoys you, go to the trouble to go to the special place where you can get a special treat. Get out, get moving, notice that it only took ten minutes to clean the sock drawer and now life will be a little easier for days. Little steps, little victories, it gets easier with every one.
This.
Well, don’t lose heart. God created you for a very specific reason. Your life’s purpose is right there within you to find. “Seek and you shall find”. These aren’t mere words, but God’s promise to you. He would not impose His will on you, so sit quietly, for even just a couple of minutes when you can, and He will let you know His will for your life.
In the meantime, I will gladly pray for you.
Thank you! :)
Please do yourself the greatest favor you can today. Look up your nearest AA meeting and get to one today. Muster up your courage and tell people how you are feeling. You will meet people who have been in your shoes and can give you help.
Start writing letters to President Trump via his website.
I keep thinking you’re so far ahead of the crowd just by being here with us. We need to unite together & remain United.
I refuse to become a casualty of the Cabal!
God Wins!
Wait I can write him. Which website has this info?
I will pray for you fren,I was in the same spot 30 years ago,maybe even to the day,I don't remember. I made it out one day at a time. I went to AA at first that was a big help.Then over time I switched to going to church.
Prayer is the key.
I will pray for your health and well-being but only you can know what you are to do with your life.
Your first step is to get help with your addictions. Those cloud your mind and prevent you from seeing and feeling what you need to. Join the Prayer Garden in the Daily Prayer Thread. They can guide you.
Once you start on the path to sobriety, look around you. Many others are hurting both human and animal. Find a church that ministers to those in need. Offer your help. The least popular jobs are the behind the scenes, real work: organizing the food pantry; sorting through the lending closet; peeling potatoes for meals. I enjoy those unpopular jobs because to me those are the most meaningful.
Animal shelters are in desperate need of help. Especially dog walkers. It only takes a few hours to go through general orientation and specific dog handling training. Trust me, the look on the dogs's faces when they see you walk into the kennel carrying a leash is absolutely priceless. You will feel such love and importance! Most shelters do "Hiking Buddies" where once you are trained you can borrow a dog for the day. Lots of people who can't have pets love that program. The dogs really love it as a normal walk is 15-20 minutes once or twice a day if they're lucky enough to even get a walk.
Reaching outside of yourself will help you find yourself.
easy to feel depressed the way its going these days. when I feel dark I step away from the internet (sometimes for a few days!). I try to stop thinking about thinks like politics and Q and give myself time to be ignorant like most of my friends and family except a few. do you have some support systems, like church? a good friend or family member you trust? just getting out of the house helps. Being active. Look for AA meetings too
I pray Lord that you will do a work in this anon's life. Things ARE hopeless but we know that through you ALL things are possible and our hope is in what you have promised us...a new life through the blood of Jesus Christ. Surround this one, so loved by you, with your presence. Meet him where he is and may he reach out to the only one that can meet his every need.
When we are at the bottom, there is no where to go but up. When we are empty, there is no one but you to fill that emptiness. When we have lost all hope, we find that you are our only hope. We love you and thank you for every promise you have given us because you are faithful and love us with an everlasting love. In the precious name of Jesus...Amen
It will all pass , this is just a season you are going through and believe me I know . Take one day at a time ,baby steps and stop going down the rabbit hole with your thoughts, it's not going to help .
I'll pray for you. Don't give up. I was down there for a while, and what changed things was pursuing the Lord, as well as getting active with people and giving my time and energy to serve others. It's extremely painful at first, but it pulls you out of the funk and helps you feel better. Talk to someone you trust, perhaps an elder in the church, and try to establish a weekly or bi-weekly meeting to check in and keep yourself accountable. Go to someone who will help you, and walk you through this. We are never alone, but sometimes you have to go out of your comfort zone to find people to be with. You are loved, despite your flaws. I had better see you post again in the future! We need you in this war!
