I’ve watched watch this video nearly everyday the past 4 months. I’ve felt empty since my freshman year of high school. I’m a senior now. I’m salutatorian of my class. I’m transferring 43 credit hours into my UT degree plan for ECE with a minors in business. I planned it all. I love to lift and I wake up early for it. I lift alone. I only have 3 students in my calculus BC class. 6 students in my physics C class. It’s lonely. Along with that I’m in 19-credit hours but I feel empty. I work and I work and I work. I help out the younger too… but… I still feel so empty. Emptier than I did before when I met the girl I loved so much but she did not love me back. So… I go from relationship to relationship. I’ll go from an internship to a part-time to a job. I’ll work and work and work. But then what? I could spend time with family but it will lead to “how well are you doing with your businesses” instead of engineering or my friends. How can I have so much yet feel like I have nothing? I’m grateful for the money I have, my functional brain, my muscular body… but why do I think so little of myself? I’m an Indian kid, the only Indian within my entire high school, I didn’t grow up going to church like the other successful smart kids at my school. I necessarily don’t love, smoke, or drink like the Athletic kids at my school either. I’m just… alone though… and I feel empty. This might sound like a rant or the need for professional help. But I will come back to this comment months later if I feel any different. Thank you for your videos.
@@pavpat3k same was the case with me, i hated mylife, i was always unsatisfied and never got what I wanted or had to endure a lot of pain for everything i got ever, i was not smart and never had an impactful personality, i watched everything around me going forward but me being stuck there, the thing was i did not wanted to go that way, but i still continued coz it was the only way, for me, but obviously when you do things you don't want to do, you'll never be great at it, u can try hard and be mid, so then i stopped giving too much attention to that stuff, and things went downhill from there, i had to drop from college, i came back to my home, everyone lost hope in me, my family was disappeared, and i was, still pretending things are normal but in the inside i knew it was over, and i said to myself that if this is my destiny, then so be it, but i couldn't just take the loss, i kept trying to be the perfect person, i started daydreaming, started talking to my self, was living life in my own imagination coz reality was too painfull, but things change the moment I read the bhagwat, it was like a mirror for me, i was 18 back then, i stopped pretending stopped giving people much attention, and turned inwards, i studied the advait vedanta, found out the thing which I really wanted to do, and when the lockdown hit, i was at mental peace, but by no means this is a happy ending, I'm still struggling everything is gone too far, everyone has lost hopes, no one cares for me, I'm forgotten, but i just don't care about that, there are 3 things to get through this 1) love 2) purpose 3) complete devotion find a true love or find your true purpose or devote your self to the higher entity, i watched this video last year, stumbled upon it today again, there may have a purpose behind it, if this is, then let it be so, i don't get notifications from TH-cam so if you want to talk to me I'll never know, so here's my ig, i login it once a month, feel free to msg me vismrut_vaishvik
What did you do at home? Im currently home broken leg and no job .... videos and internet day in day out. I dont know if i will be happier when i work again but thats the only hope i have since corona isnt going away anytime soon, so there is nothing to do.
@@r.e.e.2.e Much better, I am working again and dont have that much time to question life anymore.... getting carried through life wirh job, friends, cars and what not. Thank you for asking, whats your situation?
@@SCa5100 glad to hear bro :) crazy how much can change in a year and im currently in college and working right now. its a big step up because a couple months ago i was employed, lonely, and had no friends. so now im more active and productive with my life still feel as if something is missing though. whether its getting a girlfriend, or having more friends in my life. but right now im very grateful of my current situation.
I googled "why do I feel so empty" and watched this video. It described perfectly how I've been feeling lately. I've stopped going to church and worshipping God because I "didn't have the time". I created countless excuses. At the end when he asked what is something that can fill an infinite hole, I thought "God" and when he said it, I cried and immediately stopped praying and asked God for forgiveness for forgetting he existed and thanked him for being patient with me. Thank you for this video, and God Bless y'all ❤️
I just came back to this comment, and I just went to a church camp. Now my relationship is getting better with God and I'm starting to go back to church and get more connected with other christians, my life is starting to not feel as empty and pointless, I'll keep coming back to this comment for updates if I get reminded of it
When you lack profound love, a love that cultivates you emotionally and mentally, you are prone to feeling this way. There are many factors, but this is a really big one.
@@abelg9053 Yes, but there are some things that many people don't do. You actually have to open up and let people in. Also, you shouldn't view human relationships as some sort of one-size-fits-all solution. If you examine your wants and needs, you are able to communicate them properly. And the last thing is that you should never view human connection as transactional.
I once loved a girl very much, she was into my gym but I never talked to her due to anxiety and after sometime she left. I loved her so much that I even thought of giving up on my profession life, cuz if I can't get her, what the purpose of all that. When she left, I started feeling depressed, empty and this went on for 1 year and after that I tried to fix my myself, I did something here and there, I saw some result but I sometime still feel empty... CAN THIS BE REASON??

I'm a Christian and while I agree with this, I still feel emptiness despite being a Christian. Life can still be so empty and boring because we don't have all the answers. But at least I have a relationship with God.
I think God hates me. He raised me to live this horrible life until I die, then I'll be sent to hell for blasphemy. Living hell on earth and probably in eternity.
@@Jai_jaila I would forgive you, a inperfect person who just sinned 5 hours ago and mabye even 5 minutes ago. Now Imagine him. The perfect. God. Your Creator. He will forgive you.
This feeling of deep emptiness and nothingness is excruciating. My mind is cleared and feels as if I have no thoughts and no emotions. I feel like a walking vessel, hollow on the inside lacking a soul or personality. In social gatherings, I am empty yet my face tells a different story, always smiling and laughing and giving motivation and advice to others yet I cannot take it. I’m truly lost.
I relate to this so much. I'm just tired of feeling this emptiness, I'm doing a lot of things while not even knowing why. I like something but not so sure if I truly like it. I'm so lost
This is exactly me for years ...!!!! But i accept the emptiness nd loneliness... remember the biggest blessing we have is nothing lasts forever...if a right person came to your life they change somethings into good
I don’t think there is a thing such as “absolute” faith, everyone gets tired at some point and questions life around them, it’s in those times of darkness that we gotta have faith more than anything
In the past I was an atheist but nowadays I feel a very strong pull towards the belief in God, I feel pretty empty inside and this pull is making me think that establishing a relationship with God will help fill my emptiness even if it’s only a little bit. I want to believe, I don’t wanna ignore this pull. It’s pretty hard to ignore so even if I did one day it’ll make itself known but, how do I say this. Imagine someone constantly blowing a whistle and the more you ignore it the louder it gets. That’s what the pull feels like. Nowadays though when I exhale it might just be my body doing the phantom touch thing but I swear I can feel someone gently putting their hands on my shoulders in a loving way. This is getting a bit long I should stop typing now or this is gonna go on forever. I hope to whoever reads this has a wonderful life.
Hi, I can relate to you here! :) Before I followed the Lord, I was an atheist but how I was drawn to the Lord was by often hearing a few knocks on the door of my heart through hospitable Christians I met in church and at school. Due to guilt & shame on behalf of my unbelieving family, it took me 4 years to finally surrender my whole life to God when on one fateful Sunday morning I heard a voice said to me alone, "Enough is enough!" Ever since then, I've never been the same as I was before being exposed to the love of Christ that the heart just longs more of the Lord and less of myself throughout trials and tribulations in my life upon accepting the Lord... So, in summary, it may be very tough to follow Christ at first, but over time it will be easier to navigate the flaming arrows coming from the evil one little by little as long as you seek righteousness & peace in the Word of God with prayer & petition; to challenge yourself while getting to know God your Heavenly Father better to be aware of your heart what you're going through. Expressive journalling with the Bible scriptures also helps. All in all, God bless you for seeking righteousness & peace ❤

This was EXACTLY how I felt and behaved before turning to God. I quite literally felt and knew that there was a hole in my soul and tried fill it with all sorts of sinful things but only he filled it.
same. this video is so accurate of describing my state before accepting God that it scares me. now i know only He can fill me because his love is infinite and so immense that we cant comprehend it. God bless you! amen
It's not a sin to have pleasure or hobbies. Trying to find total fulfillment in them just wont work. Our identity is only fulfiled and satisfied in Christ. I'm still learning, but I know Jesus doesn't lie when he said He is the way, through and life. @@justaperson4540

Bro, all you said is true, its like, seeing my on reality reflected on a mirror. I feel empty, after C-virus happened, everything changed, two years of highschool wasted, getting into college and finishing highschool at the same time, you cant imagine how happy i was, amazing friends and teacher, started helping at my church, got into a gym and loose the fat, everything was going good, like those highschool anime ya know, but then everything ended, ya know, i miss my friends and all those good moments, i miss beeing young, and now, im 19, im studying to get a job, to get money, to feel like im not inferior. But unfortunely, i feel like im failing, i no more have that motivation inside of me to do things, i cant study properly, i cant workout properly, im feeling empty, and yes, i do want a deeper relationship with God, but i feel to demotivated to do much, the only reason i continue is because i still have a little hope of a better future that i can build for myself with God at my side and also because i dont want my family to worry about me, and also, because if i drown into the darkness too much, i may lose that precious time that i have with the ones i love, one of my grandfathers died, i got my grandmother with me and she is the oldest of her brothers, and that means, that she is the next, ya know. Wow, i gotta say, write this text made fell a little better at least. Well, your vídeos are awesome and thank God i found your channel
That’s how I felt a couple of months ago and because of it I failed out of school and now I’m lost like I want to do so many things but can’t bring myself to do

Is it weird that....i´ve never felt empty like this?....God is in my life.....he´s patient and kind to me and does all sorts of miracles everyday whether small or big, i thank him for allowing me to notice them, so i can just thank him again for doing them....times where i _could_ say i felt empty were those times where I lied down on my bed and listened to some music, feeling nostalgic.....but i would never call that feeling empty.....i was always thinking about something....big or small...i always find people, games, work, or songs....or better yet....some part of the word of God....that help me feel happy and fullfilled....I made up the excuse that it´s because i´m young (18 years old) and that the emptiness will eventually reach me.....but it never did and it never does....I see people my age looking like a dead corpse out of sheer boredom...and I don´t get it.....i don´t get why they need the special powder or alcohol to feel alive....when all I need to feel alive is to literally sit in a couch and imagine a story.....and then guess what....now i got something new to do....write that story somewhere for people to read.....all i need sometimes is to talk to myself....or better yet....talk to God...talk *with* God...just me and him.....he listens attently...then responds....in every form he wants, and he helps me notice when he does....that makes truly thankful to my Lord....for he has given this amazing blessing of a life i have....sorry for the long text....but i love talking about God....and this is a way to do it
You can’t cancel negative space with nothing. You first need something to fill that hole, then something that can keep adding onto it to not only get a neutral feeling throughout life but a positive one. The video does do a very good job at explaining what God does when it comes to feeling empty and depressed and I would like to add onto that. It may be hard to believe that God can do such a thing from a stand point from where a lot of people who clicked on this video, but it’s true He can. Ask God to reveal Himself to you in a way that you cannot deny. Find productive things that make you happy and that is good for you and doesn’t hurt anyone. Pray to God come to Him humbly and sincerely and He will show His love to you. Try to find people around you or even online who are Christ centered (not “Christians” because not all people who claim to be Christian actually are) and look at the way they live in modern times (it’s okay to have role models just not idols) and try to keep that in mind. Read the gospels and on how Jesus lived the way you live does impact the way you feel in life. The people you hangout with, how many people you hangout with, what you think everyday, the things you say etc. Everything has an impact. So try to turn to God, stay positive and ask Him to help you pick the pieces in you life up and to come into your life and make you whole again
I’ve been struggling with emptiness, loneliness for quite some time . I constantly need some stimulation and after a while even they’ve stopped working. My social life is crap and I’m to blame for it, it’s not that I’m rude or bad , it’s just I’m unable to get what i want from the people i care about. Life is hard and such things seems to be minuscule but they have a great impact. I’ve started to do things for others that I want them to do for me. I’ve started to accept myself with my flaws. It’s difficult and I’m not there yet but its start. If you feel the same please know that you’re not alone.
I've learned that seeking God is everything, it's why we are alive. He is our Creator, and He created us to have a real relationship with Him. All of this earthly stuff fades away, but God lasts forever. God is the fulfillment our souls continuously seek. I found that firsthand. I pray more people soften their hearts to Him, because He is everything.
Great comment. Thank you friend... And I can totally relate... reminds me of a quote that helps me a lot:, "i am not miserable because I am not loved, I am miserable because I don't love". We're all working on it. Peace 🙏.

I don't like that these people don't try to help other people to fill the empty hole, lots of times helping others works in filling that void in your metaphorical heart.
God knows it all, even the unbelief. And He’s here and loves you SO MUCH!!! I encourage you, with love, to give it an honest try :). Peace and blessings, friend. Praying for you the absolute best.
John 3,16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life. God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the condemnation that men loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John 3 KJB
I'm so glad to find this youtuber and read these comments. It helps so much to not feel alone in this struggle. I struggle really bad and am often suicidal. The pain is still unbearable at times but god always brings me back in. The more I strengthen my understanding that HE is what matters and HE is who loves me above all else, the more I can feel the closest thing to true comfort. God is so incredible, and he is close to the brokenhearted.
I got out of my house. Played around with my niece and nephews. Changed my life. Their world is different, the games they play on your phone is different, you can't really scroll on your phone when they are playing a game on it with you. Now I'm looking forward to meeting a girl to have kids with. A good woman who i would feel comfortable with if she's herself and around kids.

I gave my life to God almost 10 years ago. I still get bogged down in this trap. It is a daily struggle. We have to keep in the word, keep praying, and never give up hope. God bless all those who struggle with these things.
Yes you have your life to God, but are you letting him do what needs to be done In you. If you truly have God. or if you're truly interested in knowing his loving nature, then such emptiness shouldn't be associated with you. If the void isn't yet filled, just know there is still a problem with your relationship with God. work on it, let God work on it. Peace brother
I appreciate that you are honest and I love your other videos too. I’ve been struggling in my Faith recently, and these videos really help a lot, they help me self-reflect and realize that although life can be absurd, there still is hope, goodness, and love.

I am asking this after losing my job. It feels like I've lost my whole identity. All those years busting my ass in school for nothing. I have to find a new definition of myself...
When you feel like you’re losing your identity, it’s because you’ve graduated from that identity. Remember how it feels senior year? The end of school is coming and you panic, some for a moment, some for weeks, because Who am I if not a student? That’s all I’ve ever known. My friends will scatter to the four winds. And what will I do? Do? Be? Well, you figured that out. But that early identity that you figured out? You graduated from it. You did it! Established that identity A+, first place trophy, scout badge achieved. Your early identity or identities are just foundation. If it seems God or Life or They take it away from you, it’s because you’re not meant to camp out on top of a foundation the whole rest of your life. Life’s a school: we keep graduating and going to the next level. Savor the journey. Blessings.

Not only was the message straight to the point and incredibly coherent, but was also an incredible visualization. Idk how you come up with painting the pictures and aligning them with what you want to say but it’s beautifully conveyed. Well done
As a person who are heavy depressed I feel every point so much. It’s been 5 years since I have my depression. I also reached that point where I beeing toxic and criticise everything. I don’t really trust humans. I also tried different therapies but it just helped for a small moment and the depression came back. Man I hate beeing Alive I just want to stay in my dreams forever :((. I also thought about suicide very often but I will not do it because I can’t do it to my loved ones. Wish oneday life will be enjoyable so I would have a beautiful girlfriend which loves me from the heart ☹️🖤
Please keep making these videos, they are so awesome. May God bless you. I pray that this channel blows up and reaches as many people as possible, God willing.
I'm not even making the best outside of me,yet trapped in the confusion, and I don't wanna do that. Besides not trying got me to feel guilty. Nowadays nothing is feelabe but the quilt of not living and not knowing what I should do .
With respect to religious folk out there this does nothing for those of us who don't think God is even real. It also begs the question of believers having the same problems with depression and emptiness.
Well the target audience was non believers of Christ and this video was most likely to point people in the right direction hoping at least some will be curious enough to explore and maybe turn to Christ. And for Christians dealing with depression and emptiness. It can be hard and I know it’s a struggle but God never promised it would be easy all the time or you would never stop smiling for even Jesus wept. But it could be a reminder that whatever you’re going through God is still there and He’s the same gracious God He’s always been. It won’t last like that. Sometimes there are things missing in our lives as Christians. We believe in God but how’s our prayer life? Are we spending enough time with Him things like that that make the spirit more hungry for the Lord and will have us instead of living in the world doing other things, we will be living in God and He’s so fulfilling. Sometimes that emptiness can be caused by living in the world as a believer or grieving the Holy Spirit. You grieve the Spirit by ignoring Him and things like that. even the lack of repentance of a sin causes emptiness or such things because you cannot seem to satisfy yourself with that sinful way you cannot let go of. Satan may even try to trick you making you think things and doubt causing a hole but when things like everything I said happen that’s when we have to turn to God more than ever to build our faith in Him and when we stop feeling those negative emotions we are so much happier than before we felt them because we know God helped us overcome it all. God will never put you through something you’re not ready for or can’t get through.
God never said Christians will not be depressed or sad, but through Jesus he has comforted us that he understands our pain and sadness because he bore it himself, so that now we are not longer alone in our struggles, that's comforting than an atheist saying we are nothing but atoms
Loved it, and the ending was great. Matches up with happiness/depression/suicide rates by populations too (worse outcomes in more secular groups). It's pretty clear that there is a God shaped hole for many. If it's true is another story, but this was phenomenal.
Hello, New subbie here 🙋🏾♀️. We're so blessed to have come across your channel 🙏 🙌. Wow🤩! May God Almighty continue to cover you wherever you go. Many more blessings are coming for your ministry, in Jesus's Mighty Name. Thank you for sharing.
It is because we, as humans have never fully learned to embrace and experience our emotions as intense or complex as they may be. We’ve had an intergenerational vicious cycle, playing out where parents essentially never teach their kids how to fully experience and really to embrace their emotions rather, they have them suppress, or they distract their mind from whatever emotion their body is attempting to show them. Once we learn to fully embrace our emotions and allow them to sweep over us , call out what it is you’re feeling (the better your vocabulary the better you should be at this) and just talk it through. Feeling anger? Why are you feeling angry? Is someone making you feel angry? Why is it that someone can make you feel angry? Are they yelling at you? Are they disappointed in you? Do you care about what they think of you? If they are angry, is it possible that you have disappointed them? If you have disappointed them, does that mean they do not care about you the same way you care about them? If they don’t care about you, does that mean something is wrong with you? If something is wrong with you, it may mean you’ll have a difficult time surviving in this life. That train of thought happens in probably less than a second, and not in your conscious mind. This happens subconsciously, so you immediately react with anger . But if you follow the anger to where it leads , you may have an epiphany. You may realize you are not your emotions , rather your emotions are something you experience and they are fleeting; not unlike taste, touch smell? It’s a sense. In our society, we have valued intellect over emotion, and it’s caused deep, rooted issues that run all throughout society. If we do not learn how to accept our emotions and experience them fully and explore what it is they are trying to teach us- history is doomed to repeat itself. Look at where we are now in society ? The pandemic caused everybody’s subconscious to feel fear .. fear that they might not survive this.. What happened? Our collective subconscious took over and allowed us to react with anger. Who are you angry with? Migrants ? Foreigners ? Politicians ? Police brutality ? What causes you to react with almost immediate anger? Whether you externalize the anger or keep it in… anger is not the answer. It is deeper 💯 Are you an angry person or are you experiencing anger? I’m willing to bet you’re not an angry person at heart, but rather, you have either felt like you have disappointed other people or feel like other people have disappointed you. And it’s likely that whoever it is that you feel disappointed in or think is disappointed in you or whatever the case is, it doesn’t have to be disappointment- ask yourself if the real reason why you’re angry is because you actually care about that person, and is it possible that because you care, whatever that person is doing whether they are upset or disappointed or they are disappointing you because they are not living up to your expectations, ask yourself if that’s not deeper? If they don’t meet your expectations, is it possible your subconscious think that they may not survive? It’s a scary thought. Painful even. Our subconscious wants to keep that pain from us. In trying to keep that pain from us a lot of times it ends up causing pain. This perpetuates the vicious cycle. People unintentionally hurt others, those hurt people then hurt to feel better, but it keeps the cycle going. Hurt breeds hurt breeds hurt. Breeds pain. Breed suffering. Breeds despair. Breeds war. Now, what will you choose to do? (if you’ve read this through in your mind and you feel like it hasn’t worked? Do yourself a favor and read it out loud in your loud speaking voice. 🥰)
Oh, and by the way.. The reason why people who find God seem to have achieved a clarity or a purpose - it’s because they’ve essentially released those emotions. They’ve allowed them to leave their body because they have handed them off to an invisible higher power.. Let’s achieve what humanity has never achieved before - and let’s transcend! We can live in a world where there is no war .. there is no addiction.. and psychological problems resolve themselves because we learn to live with each other and with ourselves 😊
This is... exactly what i feel. Im being told that i have model good looks, "you should join the football team, youre insanely strong!", "How do you always know the answer to everything in every class?" It's like I'm living the perfect life, told that I'm a genius, complimented left and right, never losing in anything i do and yet i feel like I'm always failing. I cant feel anymore, i can't tell what i want or what I need, i can only guess and portray what i think i might. Ive substituted feeling for hard work and effort, more and more effort every day, but i feel empty. Im perservering from the want to survive i had as kid, the desperation to eat a meal, to make it into the next day, yet I don't feel that want anymore. Im just going off of what other people tell me, and a carefully structured idea of what i should have grown into as a person, expressive on the outside yet cold, calculated and rational mentally and I don't know why anymore. I cant remember what happened and I dont know how to fix myself. Nothing I tried worked, maybe because it all in some way was physical. Im drowning and my only salvation is the ideal that maybe i can sacrifice myself to make others live happily ever after, to die a hero even if i live in perpetual emptiness.
This actually made me cry. It takes a lot to make me cry. This perfectly describes my situation since age 8, I’ve been struggling with everything in this video. I’m completely lost and I need someone to show me a way, a will to keep going. Even though I have people that “care” about me. My mind just can’t comprehend that fact. I’ve tried turning my life to Christ, but my selfish way of thinking has dug me into a bottomless pit and I feel that I will never be able to dig my way out.
Please continue to make more of these, in this 2½ mins , I have never in my life heard these exact things spoken outside of my head. I'm mean to the Letter ! I have attempted to confide in other ppl but nobody seems to get it . They might understand a little, but they don't understand all of it. Or they always immediately try and rationalise or reason what your dealing with like Jobs friends did with him. And I find I push them away bc they don't get it. But you , in this 2½ minute video hit the nail on the head. I have seen another one of your videos on temptations and I think im going to binge your whole playlist. Thank you for really understanding. Thank you for getting it ! The past few days I have been in some very dark places and I'm ready for the Lord to lift me up. The self sabotage is becoming not quite deadly but dark.
I am 12 years old, pushing onto 13 and I struggle with the horrible feeling of… well nothing, i can relate to this a lot and I don’t know what to do about it, I just started high school, I’m overweight And Have very bad health problems. People always tell me “you look sad” and I just say, well I’m not, but in reality I’m feeling like shit but I don’t want to tell them because I don’t even have a good reason to be feeling like shit. I always worry about bad decisions I’ve made in the past and also school, relationships, and I don’t know what to do. Every day feels the same, I do little things to make me happy for at most about a week and I feel like I’m just constantly trying to make my body and my mind think that everything’s ok but it’s not.
You are very mature for 12 pushing 13. Go easy on yourself friend. We’ve all been there whether we show/say it or not. That’s a tough age too, if anything I would say you saying… normal. It helps if you have some one to “air it all out with”. If you are Christian, try Jesus. Open your heart and tell him everything then invite him into the middle of it. Worked for me. Peace my friend and stay in touch. 🙏(check out my vid on - finding purpose, it may help).
Hey buddy my son just sent me this vid. He couldn't explain how his feeling his 13. So i went to see him and told him its a normal way of feeling like this because you are starting a life journey and you have more questions than answers. I also went through this stage its tuff i know but everything will fall in to place the older you get. Your body is still growing and changing and your mind can't keep up. Life is a journey into the unknown think of yourself as a explorer in a spaceship going to Mars for the first time. You're a brave person and you'll do GREAT things in life. 👌👌👌👍👍👍🚀👨🚀🌌
Everyone will interpret this video differently, I took it as no matter what you do you can’t find an answer, you just skip it and go to the next question, not every question isn’t needed to be answered, everything you do doesn’t need to be resolved, it’s ok to leave things unfinished, it’s ok to drop the way you feel and move on with your life, you may try to solve other questions harshly because you couldn’t answer this one, that is wrong, stay leveled and calm. Thank you this helped calm me, only a god in our eyes could be complete which makes sense, nothing can be complete, nothing can be perfect to us because we are meant to be imperfect, meant to have weakness, meant to have flaws and we must learn to live with them, especially the ones we can’t control.
Answer is لا اله الا الله meaning nothing is worthy of worship(i.e, to please someone or something) except God So we should stop being slave to money, fame, society, our desires, devils, mobiles, gadgets, social media and start to be a worshipper of God I.e, by showing gratitude to Him for what He has done for us, He don't like ingratitude for his creation, If you show gratitude to Him then He likes that and He is pleased with you You should thank Him the way He has guided You that is the best way to show gratitude to Him God didn't created us except to worship Him
I think us fighting our natural human instincts which we have to do so we’re not destructive. So it’s inevitable to feel empty. But caring for others and building a relationship with them makes me and others feel whole. The reason why people feel Empty is because building relations with others get destroyed easily and ever since the pandemic. We’ve been cut off from that. Hence why, we feel empty. So helping others and caring for them will help you fill that infinite hole.
I retired young and all the free time made me go inward and realize that there is an emptiness and I abused drugs for a while until I figured it out. But now I have a feeling of numbness and depression that doesn’t go away at all from the substance abuse. I hope I figure out or it gets revealed to me what to do.

I'm always so amazed to find that, the thing that I struggled with and questioned for so many years - even to the point of debating the existence of the struggle - is actually something universally experienced by all people. I had no idea for so long. Now, it seems that everywhere I look there is the clear "void" in everyone's life & we do try to fill it. And here is God, offering his Hand so that, should we accept it, all of the void, emptiness, questioning, uncertainty, and struggle dissipates in the face of His love. How can we possibly reject it? And yet we do - even in the Christian life. Perhaps it is the product of original sin that keeps us this way - always searching but never filled - but at least in the Christian life we have been given the promise that there is more to be offered than simple distraction. There is a reality that, if not filled in this life, is filled in eternity. Until that time, this life is a struggling between denying the pleasures, comforts, and temptations that are offered to fill us up, and filling the hole with God's love - which is always being offered in abundance to us. What a hilarious paradox, this life that we live. Even in accepting the promises of Christ, there is no guarantee that we are automatically filled until we are lowered into our grave. Sometimes the walk of faith can feel similar to the walk of pleasure - a fleeting moment of fulfillment followed by periods of desolation. We can become angry with God, question Him, outright walk away from Him. But He is patient. After all, if this hole is so large, shouldn't it take a lifetime to fill? Can we truly expect to be gratified so easily? How far we seem to have fallen from God - how far we must climb to return to Him. Seemingly. Even in the darkest struggles of our soul He is so close that He is interwoven in the very fabric of our being - He is closer to us than our closest friends, wife, husband, or children. He is right there with us, not just watching our struggle but EXPERIENCING it with us. He gets it. Fully. He sees us. Fully. Not in judgement. In love. We struggle to see and accept this reality and so the divide is created. All of this to say, the hole exists. It's big. And it's tough. Even with God, we can stumble back into it. It takes work but at least with God, we have someone with us - his name is Jesus. He proves to us what is important in life. He shows us the way - after all, he claims that he is the way, the light, and the truth. That's something to consider...
Im only fourteen but I can releate to every single word of this video. I've tried to build myself up with self improvement, learn about every single life philosophy there is to fill that damn hole, but it never worked. Instead I only felt even more empty than before and the more I tried to fill that hole, it felt like it just grew bigger and bigger. In the end I just hate myself, feel hopless and sad and spend my evenings hoplessly searching for something on the internet.
You just solved my emptiness. The answer is that people's hearts have infinite wants. You have a Camry, you want a Mercedes, you are a manager, you want to be the MD. You have agf, you want a prettier gf. So people have unlimited wants. We have to realize this. God has to give us this maturity. We need to remain content and happy with whatever we have
no i don’t think this is the feeling, it feels so calm, peaceful, it’s like i have gotten rid of a problem in my life and now it’s like “what’s next?”. I don’t know. I have never felt this for a long time, the only time i can recall with this feeling is when i was a child, just nothing to be excited about but nothing to worry about either, just chilling there and contented, feeling at peace, i don’t know if this is a good feeling or not but it feels so unfamiliar, like it’s so peaceful to the point it’s scary.
this is precisely how i felt before i let Christ into my life. this is such an accurate description of myself before i accepted Christ.. now i accepted him, and im feeling so much more peaceful every single day. thank you so much God - our father, Jesus - his Son, and the holy spirit. so, so so much. thank you. amen.
The whole for me is that I have lost myself, once a person who thought I had it all and was going towards a path where I had never been before, now things are different and I no longer find myself in those circumstances but here I am hoping one day I can be that again.
I was feeling like this yesterday and asking myself this same question over and over again but, still I haven’t came up with my answer yet but hopefully I will discover it soon. This video was very helpful and informative, i still have goals on my list that is incomplete so I am going to continue to finish them and accomplish them all, then maybe on my journey and progressing through life I will find my answer but as of right now I got a mission to complete.
Tears are a sign of the spirit. The holy spirit is with you. Peace friend. Where to go? First, watch the rest of my vids. Ha! Second, start a relationship with God. He’s been waiting for you since before the universe was created. Watch my vid: “who am I, in the mind of the artist”. And “finding purpose”. Peace. 🙏
The only goal that matters is seeking Heaven with God. Living a life of love and obedience towards God, learning more about Him and fortifying a genuine relationship with Him. Realizing His love for you, and then portraying that love to others. THAT is what truly matters.
I agree that we will never find happiness in material things of this world or meaningless goals that we fill our lives with. No contest about that! From my experience, I think I had very early in my life that sentiment , and I've always compared that, to the Christmas presents "effect"... You get really excited before actually getting what you want, once you get it, you feel both happy and sad at the same time. Throughout my life, I've even noticed that sentiment got stronger and stronger, especially the downfall after getting what I've wanted. I think I will always feel empty now, because once you know the truth, once you know what life is really about, in a way, it's like being out of this world. You still have a foot in it though, because that's what it takes to feed your family, but your mind is mostly way from those wordly stuff. So, as far as I'm concerned, sometimes I just wish God would put an end to this "comedy". I'm very well aware that means I'd be judged like the rest of us for my sins, and I probably need an extra time to better myself... If I had to illustrate that by an image I'd say, It's like at school when you were taking exam, and you "complete" way before everybody else. Not because you're succeeded and you're great, but you're just done with it and you don't want to put more work into it. The problem is that the teacher does not allow you to leave, you still have to wait 1 hour for the end of the test. That's me ! I'm stuck in that classroom ! I know very well that I still have work to do to get a better grade at this test, but I'm "tired". I'm not good enough, far from that, but knowing the truth and live in this world is sometimes too hard ! For the record, I'm not depressed, I'm just struggling with the reality we're in. Sorry for the long text!
@steven7846-When I was about 7 years old, my Godmother worked in an umbrella factory, so guess what I got every year for Xmas? yep, an umbrella. One year she took me into her kitchen and there on the table were all these beautifully wrapped presents, but some were still unwrapped and I thought, Wow! why let me see all this if she wasn't going to give me a better gift? She told me to wait there while she went into her bedroom and came out and handed me another umbrella! what a disappointment! every year I hoped for a better gift and every year I got another umbrella. Well, I'm all grown up now and Godmother is passed on and now I have to buy my own umbrellas and I realize what she was giving me was shelter from the rain-THE BETTER GIFT!
Idk what happened these days everything and every place seems empty and died...its been 5yr dealing with my failure and anxiety and all but nowadays its like something big happened and can't be undone.. basically I'm feeling dead and my sarrounding also.....maybe bcs i don't have anyone to talk and I'm unsocial but I'm like this from past 5-6 yrs..
I absolutely love this! I’ve realized the real joy is in following the lord and hard work. Humans have the capacity to go above and beyond, we just lack the motivation to start and the discipline to keep going. In my case, it’s waking up at 3:30am, starting my day with prayer, going to the gym, working, and fulfilling my hobbies on the side. For all the brothers and sisters out there, use your talents to help spread the word of Jesus Christ. I understand when you look around, all you see is chaos, but in the midst of that chaos you will find the path that leads to salvation, however, you must get to know him and build a relationship with him. The Creator of the World and the Universe. My life got better once I started living it with purpose and you too have purpose. Don’t let anyone make you feel as if you don’t, because you cannot simply say to one another, we are here by chance and there is not point. Open your eyes and see the beauty of this world. Live it not in fear, but of hope, knowing that there is a loving God that loves you even though you don’t fully know it yet. Love you guys and remember. Life is not about how far you can run away from your problems, but how fast you can attend to them and figure them out.❤️
As a Muslim, I can relate to this. Before praying and reading the holy Qur'an, I was empty inside. No amount of money could fulfill the emptiness that was inside me. Then I started praying and reading the Qur'an. Now I feel like i have a purpose
I watched this video over 2 years ago I was so depressed alone anxiety filled empty and looking towards drugs and new age things for help I remember being in school and watching this video and it perfectly describing exactly how I felt and then I heard oh it’s about god and I was like ehh okay I guess I’ll just try to look to god or smth but it brushed off me but little did I know this video was one of the many seeds planted in my life. It’s been over 2 years and now I’m a born again Jesus loving new creation in Christ Christian. Thank you
I know the answer for this, and its pure biology. We think we can be happy all the time, but we are organisms, just like every other animal. We exist because of two things: Survival and Reproduction. We are not meant to have fun or be fulfilled. So we can not expect to be happy or fulfilled all the time, because that is not what we are made to feel. Next time you feel empty, bored or unfulfilled: don't think there is something wrong with you or your life, think instead that this is how it feels to be a human.
I just think many people continue to search for fulfillment in earthly things--in money, materialistic possessions, sex, status etc. and they continue to make no progress when it comes to filling the void. There's a reason for that, and it's because God can only truly fill the void. A lot of people are quick to dismiss that reality, and never even give it a chance. But in all honesty, many of these people are the same ones who continue to feel empty and alone. When we decide to turn to God, we can't be proud or arrogant about it, and can't just treat God like a magic genie and say "Hey God take this misery away from me now because I want it gone right this minute!" That's not how it works. We need to truly humble ourselves and seek God genuinely, not with hardened hearts or with pride. God is our Father in Heaven, and we need to seek a true, real relationship with Him instead of viewing Him like a transactional vending machine. Hope that makes sense!
@@a.r.4093 no, not everyone has that void, that void is the beginning of depression, that void is feeling like ur not enough on your own so you try to do things that u think will fix it, but they dont work because what will fix it is you truly realizing your enough, if your religious cool, but you still need to fix that void because that void is still there ur just masking it.
@@alexivy8732 I just feel like at the end of the day, our fundamental purpose in life is to have a relationship with God, who is our Father and Creator. He literally created us, so when we don't have any relationship with Him, it's like we're going against our innate human nature in a way. Self-help books, motivational speakers, and even vices used to mask the pain work for a little while, and may even help--but that does not undermine the fact that having a relationship with God is why we are truly alive and on earth. I feel like a lot of times people say "oh you're religious, that's so awesome that it works for you." But what they don't realize is that we are all called to be in union with our Father and Creator, as well as with our Savior Jesus Christ. When taking a step back and thinking about it, it's kinda sad and even counter-intuitive to live our lives without any relationship with the One who created us in the first place lol. But that's just my take!
Oh hell nah man the whole time I was watching this I kept saying “please be actually helpful rather than just shouting jesus at the end” and low and behold this feels like the my mom says to me and it only makes shit worse because saying “jesus I believe in you and accept you” isn’t gonna fix shit. I’ve fucking tried it many times.
True. But that Jesus story is just a metaphor about yourself anyway. I’m not saying that I know everything but I watch these TH-cam videos and do a lot of research and anyone needing some kind of fulfillment in their life to find what’s missing you don’t look for it from a god that’s way up in the sky somewhere, but you go within yourself because the kingdom of God is within you bro. I believe that we are all God in our higher mind. We just need to find ourselves and keep our flesh out of the way.
Kinda sad how much this pissed you off what do you think things like this have such simple answers from a video? If that's what you think then you're on your own😂
@@riptidegaming2823 I think he explained pretty thoroughly why it bothers him because obviously his family does the same stuff and he has called on that without any results. It wasn’t just the video. But the video was just as disappointing as his experience has been in regards to that religion.simple reading comprehension would help you
@iamgodphotography I saw that? I'm just explaining that he shouldn't be upset by the videos answer because with problems like this you gotta figure yourself out and the problem on your own sometimes and there was no need for the passive aggressive response man like?
these videos depict the problems we be facing with much clarity but to me, the real problem surfaces as we ask 'what do i do now'.ya sure you can turn to God and be fulfilled. But how does that work? i do understand that once you sstart praying and believing you consciously get aware of the 'right' things to be done and at the end of the day you thank god for blessing your day.To me your subconscious mind is the place where your ideas and thoughts hit first , as you want and 'pray' to god , those very ideas transfer into your alert hence conscious state of mind. The more you think of it , the more you want to get it done. But why God? what i just ssaid is overthinking - "the more you think", but the catch is you are binding these thoughts with a positive figure, as a result when you despite trying your best with your creator by your side fail to attain success, the general statement of 'its for the better good' satisfies your failure. Im not atheist, all i m saying is you have to believe . be it God be it yourself, and you gotta believe your words in a positive , stable , good and practical mindset . the ending of this video wasnot satisfactory to me, hence the comment. Great video none the less
Matthew 7:7-8 "Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you. For every one that asketh, receiveth: and he that seeketh, findeth: and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened." Once I reverted back to my Catholic faith, learned how God wanted me to live (which is very opposite to how the world tells us how to live), turned away from my sinful desires that are normalized in the world today, and humbly submitted myself God's will...my entire life has been completely transformed, thanks be to Jesus and Mother Mary. For me personally, before this I treated God almost like an ATM machine, where I expected to get whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted--and when I didn't get it, I would then blame God for it. But the thing is, I realized that as a baptized Catholic God is my Father, & He desires me (and everyone else) to have an intimate, loving and *obedient* relationship with Him. Hope this helps.
Idk but maybe you can be the person to help everyone who isn’t religious, help find a way to fill their void. Maybe it’s love? A reason to exist is a feeling you get. In older days we existed to take care of our fellow human, hunting, gathering, medicine, shelter. Community was essential for survival yet now we are all so alone. As society progressed we’ve strayed further away from those necessities and now the only thing that matters to most is filling their void with meaningless stuff. Maybe community and love is what we need.
Dammit. I'm getting sick of not finding what I need. When I say I'm empty inside I mean it's empty; it doesn't hurt, it doesn't make me sad, doesn't make me depressed there's nothing. I don't beat myself up over it I'm not bitter not do I blame people. It's like I'm just a shell, I can talk to people friends, strangers on the bus, people in grocery stores, I don't deal with anxiety I can't even sympathize with people who have it because the concept actually confuses me. I can't find anyone who feels this way and what they did to change it. When I look back it's been this way for so long that I don't know when it started but I remember not feeling this way in my early twenties. I have God.
Thank you for this. I understand (... a little). Not by my own experience but someone very close to me who describes exactly what you say (actually, many people I know). It's a tough place to be but it may be just chemical. At least that's what it was for my friend, There was no trauma, nothing wrong, just a feeling of being a "shell" of herself. I do wish you peace.
I'm feeling the same way but the only difference is that I'm sick of finding what I would like to do and that every time I try to do something new I feel the same as I was feeling before. I hope you're doing well now
I’m feeling just the same as you are feeling empty and lonely and depressed the reason being I lost my son just before Christmas I am heart broken I loved him so much I would of gladly died for him he was only forty nine he had cancer the slow kind went on for four years I am so lost without him he was my world just can’t wait now for god to call me so I can be with him again k I’m
You described exactly how I fell with the only difference that how much better I am getting I am not only fealing not fullfilled, I am also not feeling respected or loved by anyone. And sometimes I am to destracted to notice for a few days, but then it kicks in and I just want to end it. But then I think that it would prove that I can not go beyond the emptiness, so I dont do it. How can I be or feel Loved and respected and how can I cure the feeling of emptiness and the feeling of not being worth it?
This is the first time ive seen this video, im 14 about to go into highschool and ive been thinking about my future and how all of us are just going to die and how everything my eyes can see and my ears can see are all temporary. This has made me feel empty the fact I can achieve something but all I can achieve is temporary, im confused I wanted answers I wanted someone to take this burden off of me or atleast share this burden with me, but Ive realized from this video just how much God loves me and how I was created just for him. Thanky IMBeggar
Sometimes I just feel heavy and empty at the same time. What I’ve noticed recently is that the thing that gets me on track again is when I do something that gives me a lot of feeling. That takes you out of your head. I just had this emptiness feeling so I decided to take a shower and I’m the shower I turned it all the way down to as cold as it would go. Sat there for like 2 minutes and making sure I was hitting my hole body. Now that I’m out I feel great and I wish I would’ve stayed in there longer. My point being do something that pulls you out of your mind and into your body.
Often I learnt that this overwhelming feeling of emptiness and nothingness comes from a traumatizing childhood which can lead to a C-PTSD (complex post traumatic stress disorder). Maybe check on that. There are good books (e.g. by Pete Walker) out there. Just a thought.
Imagine the day you die but you could send letters to you children each day, they wouldn’t know it’s you though so you keep trying because you love them, you still want to talk to them. Thats Gods way of showing that he loved you and wants a relationship with you. Seek God today, don’t continue the cycle of emptiness ❤
I'm almost 30 and I can't seem to get my life together. I suffered from Passive Su*cidial Ideation up until my "come to Jesus" moment. I felt like i was finally understood and seen, I started going to church, and I got baptized just a couple of months ago. While my life has changed and I've worked through several bad habbits, the thoughts of not being this successful man is starting to weigh on me again. This video hit my feed when I needed it. To feel seen again.
Stuff like this does make me wonder. The emptiness started after I stopped believing in God. But maybe it’s the lack of beliefs in general that caused the emptiness. I don’t necessarily need God just a belief system like a religion or philosophy. My friend who is a Christian they stopped believing and felt the emptiness but then they got into philosophy and felt satisfied again.
I just think many people continue to search for fulfillment in earthly things--in money, materialistic possessions, sex, status etc. and they continue to make no progress when it comes to filling the void. There's a reason for that, and it's because God can only truly fill the void. A lot of people are quick to dismiss that reality, and never even give it a chance.

God is our Father in Heaven, and we need to seek a true, real relationship with Him instead of viewing Him like a transactional vending machine. Hope that makes sense!
There is no other possible end result for it. What else could he have said? Nothing that is finite gives lasting fulfillment. If you didnt like the answer and do not want to accept it, the answer that is left then is that there is no answer, and you will be forever at the stage of distracting yourself and trying to be moderately satisfied with toys of various sorts. it's your call.
Honestly even as an atheist your channel, and the Bibles teaching and Christianity have had a positive impact on me, my outlook on life, and I have to just thank you and people like you hwo don't twist the bibles teaching for a radical message but use them to help people and open even non-Christian eyes such as myself to the lessons given by prophets to help everyone in their lives. God bless and thank you
I was seriously hoping for some kind of meaning in this. But I guess much like the mushroom induced trip that brought me to this page there truly is no meaning to all of it. I'm just here doing the thing as part of the thing like everyone else is without pretending I know what's going on. I wish the person who did would hurry the fuck up and say something.

This video so real
I’ve watched watch this video nearly everyday the past 4 months. I’ve felt empty since my freshman year of high school. I’m a senior now. I’m salutatorian of my class. I’m transferring 43 credit hours into my UT degree plan for ECE with a minors in business. I planned it all. I love to lift and I wake up early for it. I lift alone. I only have 3 students in my calculus BC class. 6 students in my physics C class. It’s lonely. Along with that I’m in 19-credit hours but I feel empty. I work and I work and I work. I help out the younger too… but… I still feel so empty. Emptier than I did before when I met the girl I loved so much but she did not love me back. So… I go from relationship to relationship. I’ll go from an internship to a part-time to a job. I’ll work and work and work. But then what? I could spend time with family but it will lead to “how well are you doing with your businesses” instead of engineering or my friends. How can I have so much yet feel like I have nothing? I’m grateful for the money I have, my functional brain, my muscular body… but why do I think so little of myself? I’m an Indian kid, the only Indian within my entire high school, I didn’t grow up going to church like the other successful smart kids at my school. I necessarily don’t love, smoke, or drink like the Athletic kids at my school either. I’m just… alone though… and I feel empty.
This might sound like a rant or the need for professional help. But I will come back to this comment months later if I feel any different.
Thank you for your videos.
I relate to this video more than I want to. Praise God and God bless you.
@@pavpat3k same was the case with me, i hated mylife, i was always unsatisfied and never got what I wanted or had to endure a lot of pain for everything i got ever, i was not smart and never had an impactful personality, i watched everything around me going forward but me being stuck there, the thing was i did not wanted to go that way, but i still continued coz it was the only way, for me, but obviously when you do things you don't want to do, you'll never be great at it, u can try hard and be mid, so then i stopped giving too much attention to that stuff, and things went downhill from there, i had to drop from college, i came back to my home, everyone lost hope in me, my family was disappeared, and i was, still pretending things are normal but in the inside i knew it was over, and i said to myself that if this is my destiny, then so be it, but i couldn't just take the loss, i kept trying to be the perfect person, i started daydreaming, started talking to my self, was living life in my own imagination coz reality was too painfull, but things change the moment I read the bhagwat, it was like a mirror for me, i was 18 back then, i stopped pretending stopped giving people much attention, and turned inwards, i studied the advait vedanta, found out the thing which I really wanted to do, and when the lockdown hit, i was at mental peace, but by no means this is a happy ending, I'm still struggling everything is gone too far, everyone has lost hopes, no one cares for me, I'm forgotten, but i just don't care about that, there are 3 things to get through this 1) love 2) purpose 3) complete devotion find a true love or find your true purpose or devote your self to the higher entity, i watched this video last year, stumbled upon it today again, there may have a purpose behind it, if this is, then let it be so, i don't get notifications from TH-cam so if you want to talk to me I'll never know, so here's my ig, i login it once a month, feel free to msg me vismrut_vaishvik
This video made me realize how little I’ve actually lived in the past and now realize that I have a lot of room to grow in my walk with Christ.
"Moderately satisfied until I die" This is my life. I hate it.
This vid is the story of my life. I know the feeling, been there. But we can break the cycle. Peace friend.

Ha. I know the feeling. Peace.

very grateful of my current situation.
I googled "why do I feel so empty" and watched this video. It described perfectly how I've been feeling lately. I've stopped going to church and worshipping God because I "didn't have the time". I created countless excuses. At the end when he asked what is something that can fill an infinite hole, I thought "God" and when he said it, I cried and immediately stopped praying and asked God for forgiveness for forgetting he existed and thanked him for being patient with me. Thank you for this video, and God Bless y'all ❤️
Wow! This is awesome.
God Bless All Of Us Brother/Sister❤😊!!!
I just came back to this comment, and I just went to a church camp. Now my relationship is getting better with God and I'm starting to go back to church and get more connected with other christians, my life is starting to not feel as empty and pointless, I'll keep coming back to this comment for updates if I get reminded of it
We sure wanna know how youre going buddy, keep us updated

When you lack profound love, a love that cultivates you emotionally and mentally, you are prone to feeling this way. There are many factors, but this is a really big one.
Is there even a way to find that love you need?...
@@abelg9053 Yes, but there are some things that many people don't do. You actually have to open up and let people in. Also, you shouldn't view human relationships as some sort of one-size-fits-all solution. If you examine your wants and needs, you are able to communicate them properly. And the last thing is that you should never view human connection as transactional.
I once loved a girl very much, she was into my gym but I never talked to her due to anxiety and after sometime she left. I loved her so much that I even thought of giving up on my profession life, cuz if I can't get her, what the purpose of all that. When she left, I started feeling depressed, empty and this went on for 1 year and after that I tried to fix my myself, I did something here and there, I saw some result but I sometime still feel empty...
CAN THIS BE REASON??
I think you are 100% right and that is one of the biggest reasons people are feeling this way

So we should stop being slave to money, fame, society, our desires, devils, mobiles, gadgets, social media and start to be a worshipper of God I.e, by showing gratitude to Him for what He has done for us, He don't like ingratitude for his creation, If you show gratitude to Him then He likes that and He is pleased with you.

I'm a Christian and while I agree with this, I still feel emptiness despite being a Christian. Life can still be so empty and boring because we don't have all the answers. But at least I have a relationship with God.

@@Jai_jaila he doesn't hate, but it sounds like he's preparing you for the road ahead or building up your strength through the pain of it all.

This feeling of deep emptiness and nothingness is excruciating. My mind is cleared and feels as if I have no thoughts and no emotions. I feel like a walking vessel, hollow on the inside lacking a soul or personality. In social gatherings, I am empty yet my face tells a different story, always smiling and laughing and giving motivation and advice to others yet I cannot take it. I’m truly lost.
I relate to this so much. I'm just tired of feeling this emptiness, I'm doing a lot of things while not even knowing why. I like something but not so sure if I truly like it. I'm so lost

Im so jealous of those who can have absolute faith in god
same man, i wish i could just so easily and blindly believe in something that would give my life meaning
@@enorupted If only it were so easy..
Reply me if you achieve it
I don’t think there is a thing such as “absolute” faith, everyone gets tired at some point and questions life around them, it’s in those times of darkness that we gotta have faith more than anything
@@enorupteddon’t blindly go into it, ask questions to Christian channels and ppl, go to churches, it don’t have to be a blind journey
In the past I was an atheist but nowadays I feel a very strong pull towards the belief in God, I feel pretty empty inside and this pull is making me think that establishing a relationship with God will help fill my emptiness even if it’s only a little bit. I want to believe, I don’t wanna ignore this pull. It’s pretty hard to ignore so even if I did one day it’ll make itself known but, how do I say this. Imagine someone constantly blowing a whistle and the more you ignore it the louder it gets. That’s what the pull feels like. Nowadays though when I exhale it might just be my body doing the phantom touch thing but I swear I can feel someone gently putting their hands on my shoulders in a loving way. This is getting a bit long I should stop typing now or this is gonna go on forever. I hope to whoever reads this has a wonderful life.
Hi, I can relate to you here! :) Before I followed the Lord, I was an atheist but how I was drawn to the Lord was by often hearing a few knocks on the door of my heart through hospitable Christians I met in church and at school. Due to guilt & shame on behalf of my unbelieving family, it took me 4 years to finally surrender my whole life to God when on one fateful Sunday morning I heard a voice said to me alone, "Enough is enough!" Ever since then, I've never been the same as I was before being exposed to the love of Christ that the heart just longs more of the Lord and less of myself throughout trials and tribulations in my life upon accepting the Lord...
So, in summary, it may be very tough to follow Christ at first, but over time it will be easier to navigate the flaming arrows coming from the evil one little by little as long as you seek righteousness & peace in the Word of God with prayer & petition; to challenge yourself while getting to know God your Heavenly Father better to be aware of your heart what you're going through. Expressive journalling with the Bible scriptures also helps.
All in all, God bless you for seeking righteousness & peace ❤

This was EXACTLY how I felt and behaved before turning to God. I quite literally felt and knew that there was a hole in my soul and tried fill it with all sorts of sinful things but only he filled it.
same. this video is so accurate of describing my state before accepting God that it scares me. now i know only He can fill me because his love is infinite and so immense that we cant comprehend it. God bless you! amen
Pleasure or hobbies = sin. Great logic right there
It's not a sin to have pleasure or hobbies. Trying to find total fulfillment in them just wont work. Our identity is only fulfiled and satisfied in Christ. I'm still learning, but I know Jesus doesn't lie when he said He is the way, through and life. @@justaperson4540

Bro, all you said is true, its like, seeing my on reality reflected on a mirror. I feel empty, after C-virus happened, everything changed, two years of highschool wasted, getting into college and finishing highschool at the same time, you cant imagine how happy i was, amazing friends and teacher, started helping at my church, got into a gym and loose the fat, everything was going good, like those highschool anime ya know, but then everything ended, ya know, i miss my friends and all those good moments, i miss beeing young, and now, im 19, im studying to get a job, to get money, to feel like im not inferior. But unfortunely, i feel like im failing, i no more have that motivation inside of me to do things, i cant study properly, i cant workout properly, im feeling empty, and yes, i do want a deeper relationship with God, but i feel to demotivated to do much, the only reason i continue is because i still have a little hope of a better future that i can build for myself with God at my side and also because i dont want my family to worry about me, and also, because if i drown into the darkness too much, i may lose that precious time that i have with the ones i love, one of my grandfathers died, i got my grandmother with me and she is the oldest of her brothers, and that means, that she is the next, ya know. Wow, i gotta say, write this text made fell a little better at least. Well, your vídeos are awesome and thank God i found your channel

Is it weird that....i´ve never felt empty like this?....God is in my life.....he´s patient and kind to me and does all sorts of miracles everyday whether small or big, i thank him for allowing me to notice them, so i can just thank him again for doing them....times where i _could_ say i felt empty were those times where I lied down on my bed and listened to some music, feeling nostalgic.....but i would never call that feeling empty.....i was always thinking about something....big or small...i always find people, games, work, or songs....or better yet....some part of the word of God....that help me feel happy and fullfilled....I made up the excuse that it´s because i´m young (18 years old) and that the emptiness will eventually reach me.....but it never did and it never does....I see people my age looking like a dead corpse out of sheer boredom...and I don´t get it.....i don´t get why they need the special powder or alcohol to feel alive....when all I need to feel alive is to literally sit in a couch and imagine a story.....and then guess what....now i got something new to do....write that story somewhere for people to read.....all i need sometimes is to talk to myself....or better yet....talk to God...talk *with* God...just me and him.....he listens attently...then responds....in every form he wants, and he helps me notice when he does....that makes truly thankful to my Lord....for he has given this amazing blessing of a life i have....sorry for the long text....but i love talking about God....and this is a way to do it

why the FUCK do you type like that

My brain constantly always tells me that the only thing that can get rid off the hole of emptiness is to cancel it out with nothingness.
You can’t cancel negative space with nothing. You first need something to fill that hole, then something that can keep adding onto it to not only get a neutral feeling throughout life but a positive one. The video does do a very good job at explaining what God does when it comes to feeling empty and depressed and I would like to add onto that. It may be hard to believe that God can do such a thing from a stand point from where a lot of people who clicked on this video, but it’s true He can. Ask God to reveal Himself to you in a way that you cannot deny. Find productive things that make you happy and that is good for you and doesn’t hurt anyone. Pray to God come to Him humbly and sincerely and He will show His love to you. Try to find people around you or even online who are Christ centered (not “Christians” because not all people who claim to be Christian actually are) and look at the way they live in modern times (it’s okay to have role models just not idols) and try to keep that in mind. Read the gospels and on how Jesus lived the way you live does impact the way you feel in life. The people you hangout with, how many people you hangout with, what you think everyday, the things you say etc. Everything has an impact. So try to turn to God, stay positive and ask Him to help you pick the pieces in you life up and to come into your life and make you whole again
I’ve been struggling with emptiness, loneliness for quite some time . I constantly need some stimulation and after a while even they’ve stopped working. My social life is crap and I’m to blame for it, it’s not that I’m rude or bad , it’s just I’m unable to get what i want from the people i care about. Life is hard and such things seems to be minuscule but they have a great impact. I’ve started to do things for others that I want them to do for me. I’ve started to accept myself with my flaws. It’s difficult and I’m not there yet but its start. If you feel the same please know that you’re not alone.
I've learned that seeking God is everything, it's why we are alive. He is our Creator, and He created us to have a real relationship with Him. All of this earthly stuff fades away, but God lasts forever. God is the fulfillment our souls continuously seek. I found that firsthand. I pray more people soften their hearts to Him, because He is everything.
Great comment. Thank you friend... And I can totally relate... reminds me of a quote that helps me a lot:, "i am not miserable because I am not loved, I am miserable because I don't love". We're all working on it. Peace 🙏.

I don't like that these people don't try to help other people to fill the empty hole, lots of times helping others works in filling that void in your metaphorical heart.
I watched this video hoping to get an answer, but it ended with something that I don't believe in at all. I'm doomed.
Just because you don't believe in it doesn't Mean it's not true
Christ can save you from that fate
God knows it all, even the unbelief. And He’s here and loves you SO MUCH!!!
I encourage you, with love, to give it an honest try :). Peace and blessings, friend. Praying for you the absolute best.
John 3,16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life. God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the condemnation that men loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. John 3 KJB
You're doomed because you watched one video? Watch 10,000 more.
Finally a high quality video in terms of content… this matches absolutely my personal experience.
I'm so glad to find this youtuber and read these comments. It helps so much to not feel alone in this struggle. I struggle really bad and am often suicidal. The pain is still unbearable at times but god always brings me back in. The more I strengthen my understanding that HE is what matters and HE is who loves me above all else, the more I can feel the closest thing to true comfort.
God is so incredible, and he is close to the brokenhearted.
I got out of my house. Played around with my niece and nephews. Changed my life.
Their world is different, the games they play on your phone is different, you can't really scroll on your phone when they are playing a game on it with you.
Now I'm looking forward to meeting a girl to have kids with. A good woman who i would feel comfortable with if she's herself and around kids.
The emptyness is evan worse when there is fear with it also.

I gave my life to God almost 10 years ago. I still get bogged down in this trap. It is a daily struggle. We have to keep in the word, keep praying, and never give up hope. God bless all those who struggle with these things.
Yes you have your life to God, but are you letting him do what needs to be done In you. If you truly have God. or if you're truly interested in knowing his loving nature, then such emptiness shouldn't be associated with you. If the void isn't yet filled, just know there is still a problem with your relationship with God. work on it, let God work on it. Peace brother
@XyberBuzz Thank you for the encouragement. God bless you!

The emptiness always come back especially at night, I used to bottle this for the last decade I can't take it any more.
I am asking this after losing my job. It feels like I've lost my whole identity. All those years busting my ass in school for nothing. I have to find a new definition of myself...
When you feel like you’re losing your identity, it’s because you’ve graduated from that identity. Remember how it feels senior year? The end of school is coming and you panic, some for a moment, some for weeks, because Who am I if not a student? That’s all I’ve ever known. My friends will scatter to the four winds. And what will I do? Do? Be? Well, you figured that out. But that early identity that you figured out? You graduated from it. You did it! Established that identity A+, first place trophy, scout badge achieved. Your early identity or identities are just foundation. If it seems God or Life or They take it away from you, it’s because you’re not meant to camp out on top of a foundation the whole rest of your life. Life’s a school: we keep graduating and going to the next level. Savor the journey. Blessings.

Nowadays nothing is feelabe but the quilt of not living and not knowing what I should do .
I’m so comfortable being empty that now I’m afraid of being happy or just simply having anything good about life.
This is sooooo impactful. I pray that more people get to watch this life-changing video🙏💕
Thank you for creating and posting this, bro💖
With respect to religious folk out there this does nothing for those of us who don't think God is even real. It also begs the question of believers having the same problems with depression and emptiness.
Well the target audience was non believers of Christ and this video was most likely to point people in the right direction hoping at least some will be curious enough to explore and maybe turn to Christ. And for Christians dealing with depression and emptiness. It can be hard and I know it’s a struggle but God never promised it would be easy all the time or you would never stop smiling for even Jesus wept. But it could be a reminder that whatever you’re going through God is still there and He’s the same gracious God He’s always been. It won’t last like that. Sometimes there are things missing in our lives as Christians. We believe in God but how’s our prayer life? Are we spending enough time with Him things like that that make the spirit more hungry for the Lord and will have us instead of living in the world doing other things, we will be living in God and He’s so fulfilling. Sometimes that emptiness can be caused by living in the world as a believer or grieving the Holy Spirit. You grieve the Spirit by ignoring Him and things like that. even the lack of repentance of a sin causes emptiness or such things because you cannot seem to satisfy yourself with that sinful way you cannot let go of. Satan may even try to trick you making you think things and doubt causing a hole but when things like everything I said happen that’s when we have to turn to God more than ever to build our faith in Him and when we stop feeling those negative emotions we are so much happier than before we felt them because we know God helped us overcome it all. God will never put you through something you’re not ready for or can’t get through.
God never said Christians will not be depressed or sad, but through Jesus he has comforted us that he understands our pain and sadness because he bore it himself, so that now we are not longer alone in our struggles, that's comforting than an atheist saying we are nothing but atoms

Wow, I never thought my entire life of 40 years on this earth could be summarized in under 3 minutes but there it is!
Crazy how us humans, different ages, cultures, and lives struggle with this. Good video. God bless
Loved it, and the ending was great. Matches up with happiness/depression/suicide rates by populations too (worse outcomes in more secular groups). It's pretty clear that there is a God shaped hole for many. If it's true is another story, but this was phenomenal.

Its got really weird when your happy or joy or sad or another emotion but your heart is empty like missing something
It is because we, as humans have never fully learned to embrace and experience our emotions as intense or complex as they may be. We’ve had an intergenerational vicious cycle, playing out where parents essentially never teach their kids how to fully experience and really to embrace their emotions rather, they have them suppress, or they distract their mind from whatever emotion their body is attempting to show them.
Once we learn to fully embrace our emotions and allow them to sweep over us , call out what it is you’re feeling (the better your vocabulary the better you should be at this) and just talk it through.
Feeling anger?
Why are you feeling angry?
Is someone making you feel angry?
Why is it that someone can make you feel angry?
Are they yelling at you?
Are they disappointed in you?
Do you care about what they think of you?
If they are angry, is it possible that you have disappointed them?
If you have disappointed them, does that mean they do not care about you the same way you care about them?
If they don’t care about you, does that mean something is wrong with you?
If something is wrong with you, it may mean you’ll have a difficult time surviving in this life.
That train of thought happens in probably less than a second, and not in your conscious mind.
This happens subconsciously, so you immediately react with anger .
But if you follow the anger to where it leads , you may have an epiphany.
You may realize you are not your emotions , rather your emotions are something you experience and they are fleeting; not unlike taste, touch smell? It’s a sense. In our society, we have valued intellect over emotion, and it’s caused deep, rooted issues that run all throughout society.
If we do not learn how to accept our emotions and experience them fully and explore what it is they are trying to teach us- history is doomed to repeat itself.
Look at where we are now in society ?
The pandemic caused everybody’s subconscious to feel fear .. fear that they might not survive this..
What happened?
Our collective subconscious took over and allowed us to react with anger.
Who are you angry with?
Migrants ?
Foreigners ?
Politicians ?
Police brutality ?
What causes you to react with almost immediate anger? Whether you externalize the anger or keep it in… anger is not the answer.
It is deeper 💯
Are you an angry person or are you experiencing anger?
I’m willing to bet you’re not an angry person at heart, but rather, you have either felt like you have disappointed other people or feel like other people have disappointed you. And it’s likely that whoever it is that you feel disappointed in or think is disappointed in you or whatever the case is, it doesn’t have to be disappointment- ask yourself if the real reason why you’re angry is because you actually care about that person, and is it possible that because you care, whatever that person is doing whether they are upset or disappointed or they are disappointing you because they are not living up to your expectations, ask yourself if that’s not deeper? If they don’t meet your expectations, is it possible your subconscious think that they may not survive? It’s a scary thought. Painful even. Our subconscious wants to keep that pain from us.
In trying to keep that pain from us a lot of times it ends up causing pain. This perpetuates the vicious cycle. People unintentionally hurt others, those hurt people then hurt to feel better, but it keeps the cycle going. Hurt breeds hurt breeds hurt. Breeds pain. Breed suffering. Breeds despair. Breeds war.
Now, what will you choose to do?
(if you’ve read this through in your mind and you feel like it hasn’t worked? Do yourself a favor and read it out loud in your loud speaking voice. 🥰)
Oh, and by the way..
The reason why people who find God seem to have achieved a clarity or a purpose - it’s because they’ve essentially released those emotions. They’ve allowed them to leave their body because they have handed them off to an invisible higher power..
Let’s achieve what humanity has never achieved before - and let’s transcend!
We can live in a world where there is no war .. there is no addiction.. and psychological problems resolve themselves because we learn to live with each other and with ourselves 😊
This is... exactly what i feel. Im being told that i have model good looks, "you should join the football team, youre insanely strong!", "How do you always know the answer to everything in every class?" It's like I'm living the perfect life, told that I'm a genius, complimented left and right, never losing in anything i do and yet i feel like I'm always failing. I cant feel anymore, i can't tell what i want or what I need, i can only guess and portray what i think i might. Ive substituted feeling for hard work and effort, more and more effort every day, but i feel empty. Im perservering from the want to survive i had as kid, the desperation to eat a meal, to make it into the next day, yet I don't feel that want anymore. Im just going off of what other people tell me, and a carefully structured idea of what i should have grown into as a person, expressive on the outside yet cold, calculated and rational mentally and I don't know why anymore. I cant remember what happened and I dont know how to fix myself. Nothing I tried worked, maybe because it all in some way was physical. Im drowning and my only salvation is the ideal that maybe i can sacrifice myself to make others live happily ever after, to die a hero even if i live in perpetual emptiness.
You should try going to church. It's a positive community, you'll find what you need.
Ok no need to call me out like that. 100% related to this video. You have no idea how helpful this is, thank you
Guess I’m screwed then
Same. I don’t like being told that nothing can help me.
This actually made me cry. It takes a lot to make me cry. This perfectly describes my situation since age 8, I’ve been struggling with everything in this video. I’m completely lost and I need someone to show me a way, a will to keep going. Even though I have people that “care” about me. My mind just can’t comprehend that fact. I’ve tried turning my life to Christ, but my selfish way of thinking has dug me into a bottomless pit and I feel that I will never be able to dig my way out.
Please continue to make more of these, in this 2½ mins , I have never in my life heard these exact things spoken outside of my head. I'm mean to the Letter ! I have attempted to confide in other ppl but nobody seems to get it . They might understand a little, but they don't understand all of it. Or they always immediately try and rationalise or reason what your dealing with like Jobs friends did with him. And I find I push them away bc they don't get it. But you , in this 2½ minute video hit the nail on the head. I have seen another one of your videos on temptations and I think im going to binge your whole playlist. Thank you for really understanding. Thank you for getting it ! The past few days I have been in some very dark places and I'm ready for the Lord to lift me up. The self sabotage is becoming not quite deadly but dark.
I am 12 years old, pushing onto 13 and I struggle with the horrible feeling of… well nothing, i can relate to this a lot and I don’t know what to do about it, I just started high school, I’m overweight And Have very bad health problems. People always tell me “you look sad” and I just say, well I’m not, but in reality I’m feeling like shit but I don’t want to tell them because I don’t even have a good reason to be feeling like shit. I always worry about bad decisions I’ve made in the past and also school, relationships, and I don’t know what to do. Every day feels the same, I do little things to make me happy for at most about a week and I feel like I’m just constantly trying to make my body and my mind think that everything’s ok but it’s not.
You are very mature for 12 pushing 13. Go easy on yourself friend. We’ve all been there whether we show/say it or not. That’s a tough age too, if anything I would say you saying… normal. It helps if you have some one to “air it all out with”. If you are Christian, try Jesus. Open your heart and tell him everything then invite him into the middle of it. Worked for me. Peace my friend and stay in touch. 🙏(check out my vid on - finding purpose, it may help).
Hey buddy my son just sent me this vid. He couldn't explain how his feeling his 13. So i went to see him and told him its a normal way of feeling like this because you are starting a life journey and you have more questions than answers. I also went through this stage its tuff i know but everything will fall in to place the older you get. Your body is still growing and changing and your mind can't keep up. Life is a journey into the unknown think of yourself as a explorer in a spaceship going to Mars for the first time. You're a brave person and you'll do GREAT things in life. 👌👌👌👍👍👍🚀👨🚀🌌
Gen Alpha gonna be the most depressed generation ong 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Hope things are better Marc. You can do this.
i know it sounds stupid, but go to the gym, and KEEP GOING, until you've got a 6 pack. Wish you the best.
I was curious until the end, then unamused when I saw the ending =4.
Everyone will interpret this video differently, I took it as no matter what you do you can’t find an answer, you just skip it and go to the next question, not every question isn’t needed to be answered, everything you do doesn’t need to be resolved, it’s ok to leave things unfinished, it’s ok to drop the way you feel and move on with your life, you may try to solve other questions harshly because you couldn’t answer this one, that is wrong, stay leveled and calm. Thank you this helped calm me, only a god in our eyes could be complete which makes sense, nothing can be complete, nothing can be perfect to us because we are meant to be imperfect, meant to have weakness, meant to have flaws and we must learn to live with them, especially the ones we can’t control.
Answer is لا اله الا الله meaning nothing is worthy of worship(i.e, to please someone or something) except God
So we should stop being slave to money, fame, society, our desires, devils, mobiles, gadgets, social media and start to be a worshipper of God I.e, by showing gratitude to Him for what He has done for us, He don't like ingratitude for his creation, If you show gratitude to Him then He likes that and He is pleased with you
You should thank Him the way He has guided You that is the best way to show gratitude to Him
God didn't created us except to worship Him
I think us fighting our natural human instincts which we have to do so we’re not destructive. So it’s inevitable to feel empty. But caring for others and building a relationship with them makes me and others feel whole. The reason why people feel
Empty is because building relations with others get destroyed easily and ever since the pandemic. We’ve been cut off from that. Hence why, we feel empty. So helping others and caring for them will help you fill that infinite hole.
I retired young and all the free time made me go inward and realize that there is an emptiness and I abused drugs for a while until I figured it out. But now I have a feeling of numbness and depression that doesn’t go away at all from the substance abuse. I hope I figure out or it gets revealed to me what to do.
This is 100% what I’ve been feeling. I needed this video.
Amen. Thank you!
I feel you. 🙃 I dont know what's my purpose yet. :(

I'm always so amazed to find that, the thing that I struggled with and questioned for so many years - even to the point of debating the existence of the struggle - is actually something universally experienced by all people. I had no idea for so long. Now, it seems that everywhere I look there is the clear "void" in everyone's life & we do try to fill it. And here is God, offering his Hand so that, should we accept it, all of the void, emptiness, questioning, uncertainty, and struggle dissipates in the face of His love.
How can we possibly reject it? And yet we do - even in the Christian life. Perhaps it is the product of original sin that keeps us this way - always searching but never filled - but at least in the Christian life we have been given the promise that there is more to be offered than simple distraction. There is a reality that, if not filled in this life, is filled in eternity. Until that time, this life is a struggling between denying the pleasures, comforts, and temptations that are offered to fill us up, and filling the hole with God's love - which is always being offered in abundance to us. What a hilarious paradox, this life that we live.
Even in accepting the promises of Christ, there is no guarantee that we are automatically filled until we are lowered into our grave. Sometimes the walk of faith can feel similar to the walk of pleasure - a fleeting moment of fulfillment followed by periods of desolation. We can become angry with God, question Him, outright walk away from Him. But He is patient. After all, if this hole is so large, shouldn't it take a lifetime to fill? Can we truly expect to be gratified so easily? How far we seem to have fallen from God - how far we must climb to return to Him. Seemingly. Even in the darkest struggles of our soul He is so close that He is interwoven in the very fabric of our being - He is closer to us than our closest friends, wife, husband, or children. He is right there with us, not just watching our struggle but EXPERIENCING it with us. He gets it. Fully. He sees us. Fully. Not in judgement. In love. We struggle to see and accept this reality and so the divide is created.
All of this to say, the hole exists. It's big. And it's tough. Even with God, we can stumble back into it. It takes work but at least with God, we have someone with us - his name is Jesus. He proves to us what is important in life. He shows us the way - after all, he claims that he is the way, the light, and the truth. That's something to consider...
Im only fourteen but I can releate to every single word of this video. I've tried to build myself up with self improvement, learn about every single life philosophy there is to fill that damn hole, but it never worked. Instead I only felt even more empty than before and the more I tried to fill that hole, it felt like it just grew bigger and bigger. In the end I just hate myself, feel hopless and sad and spend my evenings hoplessly searching for something on the internet.
look into it. When i was 14 yo i had no such thughts
You just solved my emptiness. The answer is that people's hearts have infinite wants. You have a Camry, you want a Mercedes, you are a manager, you want to be the MD. You have agf, you want a prettier gf. So people have unlimited wants. We have to realize this. God has to give us this maturity. We need to remain content and happy with whatever we have
no i don’t think this is the feeling, it feels so calm, peaceful, it’s like i have gotten rid of a problem in my life and now it’s like “what’s next?”. I don’t know. I have never felt this for a long time, the only time i can recall with this feeling is when i was a child, just nothing to be excited about but nothing to worry about either, just chilling there and contented, feeling at peace, i don’t know if this is a good feeling or not but it feels so unfamiliar, like it’s so peaceful to the point it’s scary.
Jesus Christ can fill that void
I wish Jesus Christ would fill me up good smh
this is precisely how i felt before i let Christ into my life. this is such an accurate description of myself before i accepted Christ.. now i accepted him, and im feeling so much more peaceful every single day. thank you so much God - our father, Jesus - his Son, and the holy spirit. so, so so much. thank you. amen.
Did i really just sit for two minutes and thirty seconds describing my pain on the inside just to hear "gOd Is ThE aNsWeR"?
It is a way to see it, Blep.
@@muhammadrameez3175I don't like to kink-shame people, but damn you're depraved!
Yes truly God Is the answer everything on earth is nothing, when you die you won't have anything but if you have God you have everything your purpose
@@Christisthetruce Agreed, God is the answer.
And what did you want? All the garbage you try to fill it with every day? It is your choice whether to go with God or live the same "life".
The whole for me is that I have lost myself, once a person who thought I had it all and was going towards a path where I had never been before, now things are different and I no longer find myself in those circumstances but here I am hoping one day I can be that again.
I was feeling like this yesterday and asking myself this same question over and over again but, still I haven’t came up with my answer yet but hopefully I will discover it soon. This video was very helpful and informative, i still have goals on my list that is incomplete so I am going to continue to finish them and accomplish them all, then maybe on my journey and progressing through life I will find my answer but as of right now I got a mission to complete.
This video so accurately described what I’ve been feeling I tear’d up watching it. Where do I go from here?
Tears are a sign of the spirit. The holy spirit is with you. Peace friend. Where to go? First, watch the rest of my vids. Ha! Second, start a relationship with God. He’s been waiting for you since before the universe was created. Watch my vid: “who am I, in the mind of the artist”. And “finding purpose”. Peace. 🙏
the worst part of this video is that its true and that i legit got no goal for my life
The only goal that matters is seeking Heaven with God. Living a life of love and obedience towards God, learning more about Him and fortifying a genuine relationship with Him. Realizing His love for you, and then portraying that love to others. THAT is what truly matters.
I agree that we will never find happiness in material things of this world or meaningless goals that we fill our lives with. No contest about that!
From my experience, I think I had very early in my life that sentiment , and I've always compared that, to the Christmas presents "effect"...
You get really excited before actually getting what you want, once you get it, you feel both happy and sad at the same time.
Throughout my life, I've even noticed that sentiment got stronger and stronger, especially the downfall after getting what I've wanted.
I think I will always feel empty now, because once you know the truth, once you know what life is really about, in a way, it's like being out of this world. You still have a foot in it though, because that's what it takes to feed your family, but your mind is mostly way from those wordly stuff.
So, as far as I'm concerned, sometimes I just wish God would put an end to this "comedy". I'm very well aware that means I'd be judged like the rest of us for my sins, and I probably need an extra time to better myself...
If I had to illustrate that by an image I'd say, It's like at school when you were taking exam, and you "complete" way before everybody else. Not because you're succeeded and you're great, but you're just done with it and you don't want to put more work into it. The problem is that the teacher does not allow you to leave, you still have to wait 1 hour for the end of the test.
That's me ! I'm stuck in that classroom ! I know very well that I still have work to do to get a better grade at this test, but I'm "tired". I'm not good enough, far from that, but knowing the truth and live in this world is sometimes too hard !
For the record, I'm not depressed, I'm just struggling with the reality we're in.
Sorry for the long text!
@steven7846-When I was about 7 years old, my Godmother worked in an umbrella factory, so guess what I got every year for Xmas? yep, an umbrella. One year she took me into her kitchen and there on the table were all these beautifully wrapped presents, but some were still unwrapped and I thought, Wow! why let me see all this if she wasn't going to give me a better gift? She told me to wait there while she went into her bedroom and came out and handed me another umbrella! what a disappointment! every year I hoped for a better gift and every year I got another umbrella. Well, I'm all grown up now and Godmother is passed on and now I have to buy my own umbrellas and I realize what she was giving me was shelter from the rain-THE BETTER GIFT!
Idk what happened these days everything and every place seems empty and died...its been 5yr dealing with my failure and anxiety and all but nowadays its like something big happened and can't be undone.. basically I'm feeling dead and my sarrounding also.....maybe bcs i don't have anyone to talk and I'm unsocial but I'm like this from past 5-6 yrs..
this world is a distraction full of temporary pleasures
You're temporary too
I think reaching out and telling other people about your struggles can help
I absolutely love this! I’ve realized the real joy is in following the lord and hard work. Humans have the capacity to go above and beyond, we just lack the motivation to start and the discipline to keep going. In my case, it’s waking up at 3:30am, starting my day with prayer, going to the gym, working, and fulfilling my hobbies on the side. For all the brothers and sisters out there, use your talents to help spread the word of Jesus Christ. I understand when you look around, all you see is chaos, but in the midst of that chaos you will find the path that leads to salvation, however, you must get to know him and build a relationship with him. The Creator of the World and the Universe. My life got better once I started living it with purpose and you too have purpose. Don’t let anyone make you feel as if you don’t, because you cannot simply say to one another, we are here by chance and there is not point. Open your eyes and see the beauty of this world. Live it not in fear, but of hope, knowing that there is a loving God that loves you even though you don’t fully know it yet. Love you guys and remember. Life is not about how far you can run away from your problems, but how fast you can attend to them and figure them out.❤️
As a Muslim, I can relate to this. Before praying and reading the holy Qur'an, I was empty inside. No amount of money could fulfill the emptiness that was inside me. Then I started praying and reading the Qur'an. Now I feel like i have a purpose
U can read bible too, it’s fun!

I watched this video over 2 years ago I was so depressed alone anxiety filled empty and looking towards drugs and new age things for help I remember being in school and watching this video and it perfectly describing exactly how I felt and then I heard oh it’s about god and I was like ehh okay I guess I’ll just try to look to god or smth but it brushed off me but little did I know this video was one of the many seeds planted in my life. It’s been over 2 years and now I’m a born again Jesus loving new creation in Christ Christian. Thank you
I know the answer for this, and its pure biology. We think we can be happy all the time, but we are organisms, just like every other animal. We exist because of two things: Survival and Reproduction. We are not meant to have fun or be fulfilled. So we can not expect to be happy or fulfilled all the time, because that is not what we are made to feel. Next time you feel empty, bored or unfulfilled: don't think there is something wrong with you or your life, think instead that this is how it feels to be a human.
Yup. This is all there is to life. It just is what it is.
What if I don't want to be human anymore?
Was certainly with it till that questionable ending. Ah well, I'll just go back to thinking of ways ill die
Tinkki I get that response a lot. What do you mean by, “thinking of ways to die?”
O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of Thy mercy. Amen.
I just think many people continue to search for fulfillment in earthly things--in money, materialistic possessions, sex, status etc. and they continue to make no progress when it comes to filling the void. There's a reason for that, and it's because God can only truly fill the void. A lot of people are quick to dismiss that reality, and never even give it a chance. But in all honesty, many of these people are the same ones who continue to feel empty and alone. When we decide to turn to God, we can't be proud or arrogant about it, and can't just treat God like a magic genie and say "Hey God take this misery away from me now because I want it gone right this minute!" That's not how it works. We need to truly humble ourselves and seek God genuinely, not with hardened hearts or with pride. God is our Father in Heaven, and we need to seek a true, real relationship with Him instead of viewing Him like a transactional vending machine. Hope that makes sense!
@@a.r.4093 no, not everyone has that void, that void is the beginning of depression, that void is feeling like ur not enough on your own so you try to do things that u think will fix it, but they dont work because what will fix it is you truly realizing your enough, if your religious cool, but you still need to fix that void because that void is still there ur just masking it.
@@alexivy8732 I just feel like at the end of the day, our fundamental purpose in life is to have a relationship with God, who is our Father and Creator. He literally created us, so when we don't have any relationship with Him, it's like we're going against our innate human nature in a way. Self-help books, motivational speakers, and even vices used to mask the pain work for a little while, and may even help--but that does not undermine the fact that having a relationship with God is why we are truly alive and on earth. I feel like a lot of times people say "oh you're religious, that's so awesome that it works for you." But what they don't realize is that we are all called to be in union with our Father and Creator, as well as with our Savior Jesus Christ. When taking a step back and thinking about it, it's kinda sad and even counter-intuitive to live our lives without any relationship with the One who created us in the first place lol. But that's just my take!
Oh hell nah man the whole time I was watching this I kept saying “please be actually helpful rather than just shouting jesus at the end” and low and behold this feels like the my mom says to me and it only makes shit worse because saying “jesus I believe in you and accept you” isn’t gonna fix shit. I’ve fucking tried it many times.
True. But that Jesus story is just a metaphor about yourself anyway. I’m not saying that I know everything but I watch these TH-cam videos and do a lot of research and anyone needing some kind of fulfillment in their life to find what’s missing you don’t look for it from a god that’s way up in the sky somewhere, but you go within yourself because the kingdom of God is within you bro. I believe that we are all God in our higher mind. We just need to find ourselves and keep our flesh out of the way.
Kinda sad how much this pissed you off what do you think things like this have such simple answers from a video? If that's what you think then you're on your own😂

Man just got my current life into 2:46 minutes, literally everything is right
these videos depict the problems we be facing with much clarity but to me, the real problem surfaces as we ask 'what do i do now'.ya sure you can turn to God and be fulfilled. But how does that work? i do understand that once you sstart praying and believing you consciously get aware of the 'right' things to be done and at the end of the day you thank god for blessing your day.To me your subconscious mind is the place where your ideas and thoughts hit first , as you want and 'pray' to god , those very ideas transfer into your alert hence conscious state of mind. The more you think of it , the more you want to get it done. But why God? what i just ssaid is overthinking - "the more you think", but the catch is you are binding these thoughts with a positive figure, as a result when you despite trying your best with your creator by your side fail to attain success, the general statement of 'its for the better good' satisfies your failure. Im not atheist, all i m saying is you have to believe . be it God be it yourself, and you gotta believe your words in a positive , stable , good and practical mindset . the ending of this video wasnot satisfactory to me, hence the comment. Great video none the less
I love this video, Im not religious but i find the messaging great talking about the Crull reality of things, and the art is just amazing
age 14 and im already at the stage where i dont care anymore..
2:26 well… that didn’t work. Then what?
Matthew 7:7-8 "Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you. For every one that asketh, receiveth: and he that seeketh, findeth: and to him that knocketh, it shall be opened."
Once I reverted back to my Catholic faith, learned how God wanted me to live (which is very opposite to how the world tells us how to live), turned away from my sinful desires that are normalized in the world today, and humbly submitted myself God's will...my entire life has been completely transformed, thanks be to Jesus and Mother Mary. For me personally, before this I treated God almost like an ATM machine, where I expected to get whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted--and when I didn't get it, I would then blame God for it. But the thing is, I realized that as a baptized Catholic God is my Father, & He desires me (and everyone else) to have an intimate, loving and *obedient* relationship with Him. Hope this helps.
Idk but maybe you can be the person to help everyone who isn’t religious, help find a way to fill their void. Maybe it’s love? A reason to exist is a feeling you get. In older days we existed to take care of our fellow human, hunting, gathering, medicine, shelter. Community was essential for survival yet now we are all so alone. As society progressed we’ve strayed further away from those necessities and now the only thing that matters to most is filling their void with meaningless stuff. Maybe community and love is what we need.
As a Muslim this really melt my heart. Great message ❤
Thank you my friend.
Dammit. I'm getting sick of not finding what I need. When I say I'm empty inside I mean it's empty; it doesn't hurt, it doesn't make me sad, doesn't make me depressed there's nothing. I don't beat myself up over it I'm not bitter not do I blame people. It's like I'm just a shell, I can talk to people friends, strangers on the bus, people in grocery stores, I don't deal with anxiety I can't even sympathize with people who have it because the concept actually confuses me. I can't find anyone who feels this way and what they did to change it. When I look back it's been this way for so long that I don't know when it started but I remember not feeling this way in my early twenties. I have God.
Thank you for this. I understand (... a little). Not by my own experience but someone very close to me who describes exactly what you say (actually, many people I know). It's a tough place to be but it may be just chemical. At least that's what it was for my friend, There was no trauma, nothing wrong, just a feeling of being a "shell" of herself. I do wish you peace.
Same , I feel u so much , the feeling is so weird that you cannot even describe it and that's the worst part I think:( hope you're doing fine !
I'm feeling the same way but the only difference is that I'm sick of finding what I would like to do and that every time I try to do something new I feel the same as I was feeling before. I hope you're doing well now
2:46
I’m feeling just the same as you are feeling empty and lonely and depressed the reason being I lost my son just before Christmas I am heart broken I loved him so much I would of gladly died for him he was only forty nine he had cancer the slow kind went on for four years I am so lost without him he was my world just can’t wait now for god to call me so I can be with him again k I’m
You described exactly how I fell with the only difference that how much better I am getting I am not only fealing not fullfilled, I am also not feeling respected or loved by anyone. And sometimes I am to destracted to notice for a few days, but then it kicks in and I just want to end it. But then I think that it would prove that I can not go beyond the emptiness, so I dont do it. How can I be or feel Loved and respected and how can I cure the feeling of emptiness and the feeling of not being worth it?
This is the first time ive seen this video, im 14 about to go into highschool and ive been thinking about my future and how all of us are just going to die and how everything my eyes can see and my ears can see are all temporary. This has made me feel empty the fact I can achieve something but all I can achieve is temporary, im confused I wanted answers I wanted someone to take this burden off of me or atleast share this burden with me, but Ive realized from this video just how much God loves me and how I was created just for him. Thanky IMBeggar
Sometimes I just feel heavy and empty at the same time. What I’ve noticed recently is that the thing that gets me on track again is when I do something that gives me a lot of feeling. That takes you out of your head. I just had this emptiness feeling so I decided to take a shower and I’m the shower I turned it all the way down to as cold as it would go. Sat there for like 2 minutes and making sure I was hitting my hole body. Now that I’m out I feel great and I wish I would’ve stayed in there longer. My point being do something that pulls you out of your mind and into your body.
Amen. We have to get out of our own heads.
Often I learnt that this overwhelming feeling of emptiness and nothingness comes from a traumatizing childhood which can lead to a C-PTSD (complex post traumatic stress disorder). Maybe check on that. There are good books (e.g. by Pete Walker) out there. Just a thought.
So Scientology IS the answer! Thank you, I'm joining right away.
I don’t think you understand the difference.
May Xenu bless you
Why do I always come back to this ?
Because it’s God way of reaching for you.
Imagine the day you die but you could send letters to you children each day, they wouldn’t know it’s you though so you keep trying because you love them, you still want to talk to them. Thats Gods way of showing that he loved you and wants a relationship with you. Seek God today, don’t continue the cycle of emptiness ❤
@@Eleanapartice Fr bro , I think i gotta read my verses
I'm almost 30 and I can't seem to get my life together. I suffered from Passive Su*cidial Ideation up until my "come to Jesus" moment. I felt like i was finally understood and seen, I started going to church, and I got baptized just a couple of months ago. While my life has changed and I've worked through several bad habbits, the thoughts of not being this successful man is starting to weigh on me again. This video hit my feed when I needed it. To feel seen again.
This is very relatabe for me, and it helps me realize what I need to do to start fixing myself
Everything was fine, I felt I could relate to all of it. Until the very end. What a downer.
Stuff like this does make me wonder. The emptiness started after I stopped believing in God. But maybe it’s the lack of beliefs in general that caused the emptiness. I don’t necessarily need God just a belief system like a religion or philosophy. My friend who is a Christian they stopped believing and felt the emptiness but then they got into philosophy and felt satisfied again.
I just think many people continue to search for fulfillment in earthly things--in money, materialistic possessions, sex, status etc. and they continue to make no progress when it comes to filling the void. There's a reason for that, and it's because God can only truly fill the void. A lot of people are quick to dismiss that reality, and never even give it a chance. But in all honesty, many of these people are the same ones who continue to feel empty and alone. When we decide to turn to God, we can't be proud or arrogant about it, and can't just treat God like a magic genie and say "Hey God take this misery away from me now because I want it gone right this minute!" That's not how it works. We need to truly humble ourselves and seek God genuinely, not with hardened hearts or with pride. God is our Father in Heaven, and we need to seek a true, real relationship with Him instead of viewing Him like a transactional vending machine. Hope that makes sense!
You should try to be more open minded. You already make assumptions without considering the good things religion can do.
There is no other possible end result for it. What else could he have said? Nothing that is finite gives lasting fulfillment. If you didnt like the answer and do not want to accept it, the answer that is left then is that there is no answer, and you will be forever at the stage of distracting yourself and trying to be moderately satisfied with toys of various sorts. it's your call.
Honestly even as an atheist your channel, and the Bibles teaching and Christianity have had a positive impact on me, my outlook on life, and I have to just thank you and people like you hwo don't twist the bibles teaching for a radical message but use them to help people and open even non-Christian eyes such as myself to the lessons given by prophets to help everyone in their lives. God bless and thank you
I agree 100%.
This video reels in the depressed and the desperate just to reveal the useless “solution” at the end
I was seriously hoping for some kind of meaning in this. But I guess much like the mushroom induced trip that brought me to this page there truly is no meaning to all of it. I'm just here doing the thing as part of the thing like everyone else is without pretending I know what's going on. I wish the person who did would hurry the fuck up and say something.
Short answer: You are missing Wobbledogs
Ngl the video had a great build up to the punchline at the end of the video, i saw it coming a mile away but i still laughed
As a muslim, your video still relatable for me. Thanku
Amen. Thank you!
