I hate to say it, but I don't think religion is what you're looking for. I was once where you are now. I was a drunk, taking drugs too to fill my emptyness. I bacame a born again christian and kicked the habit. Went to church every chance I could, read the bible and christian books every day, listened only to christian music, hung out at the local christian coffehouse, volunteered at any christian event I could. It never seemed enough. God and jesus weren't big enough. Shocking, huh. So I started digging even deeper into the bible. Then started reading books on philosophy, psychiatry a psychology. Then comparative religion books. I finally figured it out. It wasn't god I was missing. It was me I hated. I was filled with low self opinion and doubt. That was 15 years ago and I still struggle with it from time to time but I'm far happier now than I've ever been in my entire life. My purpose in life? Just to live, to leave this world a better place than I found it. Your purpose? That's for you to find through self discovery. It's different for everybody. If religion works for you I support that, but it's not the only way.

You do deserve life, everyone does. God loves all of us in our own special way. Try to get yourself connected back into a church, be around people that can help you build in your relationship with God. Good Luck =]

No person can make you happy. All people will let you down at one point in time or another. You can not look to another for your own happiness.
Finding faith in God is the only thing that will never fail you. That seed planted a long time ago is still there beloved, it just needs some watering.

You have already taken the first step to redemption,because you stated you wish to do better and have acknowledged to doing some things wrong and making mistakes ,God forgives you and has as we speak thrown your record of mistakes into the sea of forgiveness,never more to be remembered, so now get up,stand up and be the person you know you can be,seek gods love and guidance shout when time permits....God holds nothing against you and hears you when you cry out he is a gracious and merciful god just trust him....

Is there some particular thing that has happened in your life to make you feel this way? You may benefit from seeing a counselor to help work with this.

In the longer term, find other people you can help, and help them without being concerned about gratitude or appreciation. Then you will find God.

God forgives us all for things like this... When we sin if your heart is pure then you will be forgiven....just go to god and pray and tell him that you repent for the things you have done in the past and you would like to get to know him again. Praying is just a conversation between you and god just talk to him and tell him the desires of your heart

Sometimes life can be a struggle and I too have to admit I have felt like this often. Then I will sit down and think a good reason for living is the simple fact my mum and dad, they gave me life so it is my duty to repay them in the best way possible by exploring life and living it to the full. I have endured many hurdles along the way but taking each day as it comes and not beating myself up for mistakes is a way forward. Who is truly satisfied with life? Counselling is a way forward and support from good friends.
