Why do I feel so empty? bored, unfulfilled, like something is missing, like I want something more

Like theres this giant, bottomless, infinite hole inside me.

So I try to fill it with all kinds of JUNK, to make it go away.

but these don't work, they give me a quick high, but it doesn’t last, leaving me frustrated, addicted, and wanting more

So I think, maybe its me - maybe i'm the problem. I need to be bigger, better, smarter, funnier, better looking.

So I build myself up, on the outside, into some PERSON that I don’t even know, that don’t even like, and on the inside, I beat myself down, sometimes severely, and I feel more empty.

Then I think: Maybe If I get my shit together and have the perfect job, with the perfect life, and the perfect money, and all the perfect shiny things I've ever wanted, that will fill the hole.

So I work, and I work, and I work, and I work, But these things never work out the way we want, and now I got to deal with dead dreams and feeling like a failure.

And even if they do work out, and I make it to the top and get all the things I always thought would make me happy, when I get there, I look around and I say, now what? Something's still missing.

Time passes, the emptiness has been sitting, festering, fermenting, farting, becoming toxic, and it changes me, making me, bitter, critical, and self-centered, and i blame everyone and everything around me for not fulfilling me.

and I go from job to job, relationship to relationship, place to place, leaving a real path of, cheeriness along the way.

Ultimately, Im tired, I'm done searching, I just don’t care, and I give up trying to solve the mystery of the hole, and just deal with it.

I'm perfectly fine going back to stringing together enough distractions and stimulations to get me through, keeping me MODERATELY SATISFIED, until the day I die.

Of course, on the outside, no one would ever know, everything appears to be going exactly how I wanted it to go, exactly how I planned it to go.

A big success, the perfect facade.

But on the inside, I'm all alone, and I groan. Quietly.

The truth is, I can have all the pleasure, wealth, success, admiration, and all the good things in all the world, but they're not gonna fill the hole because,

they're just not big enough.

The hole is bottomless, endless, infinite, these are all limited, ending, finite, and only the infinite can fill the infinite.

So what is it? What's big enough? What's bottomless, endless, unlimited, infinite?

Why do I feel so empty?

because we're made for fullness, and only God is fullness.

During the 8 months of Lockdown I never felt empty or unfulfilled. I got back to work and that Emptiness is back

[Nightseeker]

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 ❤️

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.

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.

"Moderately satisfied until I die" This is my life. I hate it.

[caramelunicorn]

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.

[vitorpinho]

I thought it was gonna be helpful but nope

[an_egg_cultist]

Im so jealous of those who can have absolute faith in god

[genmarie]

“our hearts are restless until they rest in Thee.” this was so beautifully made,
thank you.

[imani]

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.

[thefourthguy]

Regardless of how I feel I’m not going to leave it to faith. God might be an answer but not my answer.

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

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.

This is impactful. I pray that more people get to watch this life-changing video🙏💕

Thank you for creating and posting this, bro💖

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.

[harshpathak]

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.
