I dont know why, sometimes I just feel so empty, I get a big lump in my throat. Everything can be going well, but there is this...feeling I guess. Its like something is missing and Im overcome with depression. I feel lost in life, i dont know what i want to study, I dont feel like anyone cares, and I have nobody by my side. Do any of you ever have this weird empty feeling that follows you around even on a good day? And what do you do to get rid of it, if we can?

Mostly depression is seen as repressed rage.... you don't probably think of yourself as angry, but it's unconscious. This is the hidden part of depression, and it's the reason it goes on and on. You have to find the anger and understand it - and when you do, the depression will lift.
This will often times take a psychologist - somebody who will let you work and not try to feed you dope. You work through your relationships, take lots of notes, watch the dreams.. and slowly you get to see this thing.
I hesitate sometimes to mention God because I don't want to offend anyone but I have talked to so many people who feel like you do and they are almost always non-Christian. I'm 73 years old and been a Christian all my life. I have probably been the happiest person that God ever gave breath to. I have always had so much hope for heaven and what awaits us on the other side that sometimes I'm even anxious to go. When you make God and doing for others, the center of your life, you just can't wait to get up in the morning to see what God has for you to do next. I know it's harder for young people to understand but if I were you, I would find a good church to go to and meet new friends who have that same desire and I'll bet your life will change. Good Luck and God Bless!!!
Every one feels this way. Seriously, every one, at some point.
So when you feel that way, remember: there are millions of others across the world feeling the same, at that very moment. So you're not as alone as you thought. This camaraderie, solidarity, whatever you wanna call it, with everyone else who feels empty, actually makes me feel less empty.
Good luck, and best wishes.
This is where drug use helps. Drugs will fill in that empty feeling, just switch drugs frequently to overcome the tolerance issue.
