They will take it from there. May the Lord grant you peace and strength in your inner man. + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm being pushy because I noticed that you been here for a year and you've posted 746 times. What is it your lacking? What is the hole that isn't being filled? I can understand if you want to remain private, but can you give us a general idea of what's hurting you? I'd love to listen, if your willing.

I could write pages and pages of moans and groans but none of it would really make clear why I feel like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was a teen I tried suicide twice. Trying to pin down exactly why I wanted to die was impossible. It was a lifetime full of pains, plus confusion, but anger and rage, plus injustices, plus enemies, plus and plus and plus. I think I was just exhausted from trying to figure it all out and believing I never would because I was too dumb. Even now, when I try to post something that I'm struggling with, I end up confused about what the real problem is. For me, talking about everything, no matter how irrelevant it seems to the issue, is like digging through the muck to get at the truth buried inside me. I've had a world that has taught me so much stuff-all worldly wisdom-and its so ingrained in my flesh that I don't even trust my own conclusions anymore. God's helping me sift the world out of my thinking now and its taking its toll (it can be hard to let go of cherished worldly beliefs). I'm hopeful about the treasure being unburied though. So, give me pages and pages. Give me moans and groans. Let's start digging out the truth God put in you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Biblicist Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 My brother in law has a very good friend who tried to blow his head off, because his wife left him. He was unsuccessful and ended up in recovery for many years, he's still not right. He was a really great guy too. Quite a sense of humor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...David, I'm new here, but I, and I'm sure many many others here are willing to listen and help you discover the truth, as Stormy said.
