Just want to say i dont want to be depressed. that impression is false and if i give it to you then thats a failure on my part. Well that is honestly a relief to hear. In that case take some of the advice that's been given. * Be positive * Go out somewhere different * Attempt to get to know a variety of people * Find a new hobby/interest * Get a job/ start studying * Don't be alone (that's what's easy for you), challenge yourself. When you help your depression, I think you will notice a difference in your life.
And like many people you assume i have more power over how i feel than what i actually do. believe me, if i had as much power as you say i do; i would not be so depressed. I really do know what you mean and why you think the way you do, BUT I know you have more power than you think you do. You just haven't realized it yet. I'm not saying it's going to be easy to overcome, but it's doable. (Yes, it's hard, but it's sooo worth it). So instead of saying "I can't" or "I don't", TRY.
I dont mean to sound like a victim here. im just being honest.
But regardless, thank you for your response and for reading everything. it does mean something to me.

Maybe you didnt see this in my misc thread. but i did have faith once. This hapoened when i was 15. I had prayed to god before in my life and got no answer... but i thought there was a good reason and if i really needed him, he would answer. then one day i was going thru a time of great fear and pain. I asked god for comfort, but none came. After that i questioned gods nature and lost faith.
So i did offer him faith. maybe i wasnt as faithful as i should have been but hardly anyone is at 15.

Well, staying home and playing video games is not gonna get you in Japan. A scholarship could. Or you could apply to a volunteering program in Japan (Volunteer in Japan | Reviews of Volunteer Programs in Japan | GoOverseas.com - I give the link as an example, I'm sure there are plenty of programs out there).
You must have an intelectual curiosity, there must be something that you're good at, something that you like doing: focus on that. I know retired persons that are more active than you are. I'm not saying this to make you sad, it's just that you have to realise that you can't just let yourself lived, you must live the life!
The main reason for your depression is that you don't do nothing. Go outside, get a job, study something, make yourself useful in some way and you won't have time to think about suicide and you'll also make some friends, gain experience, maturity, stability, security etc.
How about your parents and your sister? Why don't you believe that they care for you?

I remember your story. I would argue that if you had offered Him belief, it would not have been contingent upon receiving comfort from Him.
I think that, deep down inside, you know what you're looking for. Truly. If you're ever ready to give up fighting against the only true source of help... well, you know what I'm going to say.
He's there.
