Find someone to talk to.
Feeling life is meaningless may be an indication of depression.
Better seek some professional consuelling.
life got ups and downs. perhaps this period of time is your down zone. so dont filled your minds with negative stuffs.
well, i guess you are feeling like abit anti social and reluctant to head out with frens. Then being at home you dont know what to do. Yet looking at your friends being so full of life. is this what you are feeling now?

I used to know a nerd at school. He is oso like u, feel very meaningless. His parents always fight n the mother always run away. He tried to commit suicide several times. He always lock himself in his room. He wuz a loner. He have very few frens.
Then he turn to god. He went to church. He got active in youth activities n ministries. He made many many frens, gals n gurls alike. His social calender from monday to sunday, always busy. His studies start to pick up. He got a scholarship. Then he started working. He tried to find a life partner. Several gurls rejected him. He didn't giv up, instead he strive on. Just last year, I heard he found a galfren.
I am not saying tat christianity is gud bcause I am a buddhist. But I am saying life is a journey. U have to fight hard for wat u want. Sometime u dun get it but mebbe its for a better cause. Mebbe god or fate out there has something installed for u. Be prepared to fail but neva neva give up. U cannot achieve anything by sitting at home or hiding in a cave, u have to go out n take the initiative to make things happening. Sometime it is a headache but if u strive n work hard, results will start to bear fruit.

Those r suicide forums - better not go there. They organize suicide tours.

Please leave animals out of equation. Seriously, when you are happier or found a life, you probably disown the dog.

suicide forums ?
i refer to those mental health or self help forums lah... but those are for more serious cases.. so if one is still ok just occasionally feel moody, then my advice is not to dwell in forums too much. forums in general accumulate many negative n critical thoughts of people... just look at this forum... haha
like one forumnite said earlier, it's better to occupy ourselves with positive things to do... griping n complaining only make things worse...... IMO
Go travelling. It might help.
change your life
do what you have not done before
i feel the same way too, the hole just gets deeper and deeper.. :(
