To search the sense of life has been the goal of humanity for years... The center of life is not the man, the center of life is God, everything get confuses when the center of life is the man, 'who am I', 'what should I do?', to discover the sense of life it starts with God... 
It is quite difficult, not impossible, I've being sad too lots of times, but as the Bible says... "...weeping may endure for a night, but joy {cometh} in the morning." Psalm 30:5
Everything was made by Him and for Him.
Hannah felt “bitter of soul”—a phrase that has been rendered as “brokenhearted” and “deeply distressed.” (1 Samuel 1:10) On one occasion the prophet Elijah was so grief-stricken that he prayed for God to take his life!—1 Kings 19:4.

Because Christ lives we can face tomorrow. Sometimes the things we worry about and steress over are not that big a deal it just seems horrible cause flesh is never satisfied, always wanting bigger better and more things or is not satisfied with where it is in life . Then sometimes when you put hope and trust into other flesh and for whatever reason let's you down, that can be pretty dissapointing too. But when you give your problems to Jesus he will never let you down, he's a burdern bearer the good Shepard. You just got to have faith and give your problems to him and leave then there. You was blessed to see another day to feel the sun on your face so many people didn't wake up today but you did and that's a blessing your blessed.

Well, I'm not sure what to say to other than keep praying and keep trying.
God cares pretty deeply, and so do some of his servants. If I remember correctly, you and I talked in the singles lounge on here... it must have been months ago now. We only talked once, but you had a lot to say.
You're in college and you're not sure if you want to go for Computer Information Systems or Computer Science, yes?

I personally have never had to battle with depression so I'm not going to lie and try to say I know what your going through but I do know people who have depression and I also have known someone who attempted suicide, and it's a terrible thing. Just remember your still here. Even though you don't see why at the moment, the simple fact is that you are still here. The way I see it is, God is in control of everything he controls every heartbeat. And as long as your heart is still beating He still needs you, you haven't fulfilled His purpose for your life yet. Yes, God gives us free will to make our own choices but I believe that fee will is within a little border He creates. A box that he creates to kind of move you back into his purpose for your life. For example people try to commit suicide all the time, full proof ways even. But they survive, that's the box God's not done with them. Other people have miracles happen, tumors just disappear no explanation. Thats the box. On the other hand some people pass away no explanation. That means God has fulfilled His purpose for them and has called them home.
So as long as your still breathing remember you haven't fulfilled your purpose yet. You just have to wait for God to reveal His plan to you and in the mean time wake up each morning like today is the day He is going to reveal it.
I hope this helps

just start dancing... do things you enjoy without caring what anyone thinks. For me depression snow balls if you dwell on how crap you are feeling. Helping people randomly really does help for some reason. It makes you feel good when you make someone else feel good. Sometimes just a kind word or opening up a door for someone. Little things.
Sure some circumstances wont help but I believe depression is a battle in your mind more than anything. God has already given you the power to overcome it within yourself.

I am reminded of Paul's THORN IN THE FLESH sent from the LORD
Sometimes the LORD has is in circumstances really no one around you can relate to and often the close people around you are the ones he uses to do that... Be of good cheer,,, the very fact that it seems like DEATH is the only way out is the very REASON THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE is the ONLY way and if your cry is only to the lord and solely for the lord to help ,,,, then you are good hands

We're walking this road right along with you, Prisca. You are not alone. I'm so sorry that you are hurting this deeply and if things don't always make sense. I promise God is going to work out his good in you. He cares that you're hurting. Even if it seems like he isn't doing anything about it, He is writing your story right now and he is going to get you through until you get to the next page. I'm praying for you. Hang in there.
