Have you reach to a point of giving up hope?

Hi joddie! Yes, I've been through a lot of hard times. Most of those times, it feels as if there's nothing more to life than what you had at that time. As always, whenever I face these things, I always remind myself that "This too shall pass". And of course, most of all, praying always helps! :)

Hi joddie! Sorry to hear what you have gone through. At least it's worth now that you are in the light for all your patience and perseverance. You are an inspiration to many.

This entire year has been one dark moment after another for me. I have given up hope many times only to go on and see that little flicker of light. The scary part is my flicker sometimes seems to go out before I even get the chance to notice it. But I keep telling myself all will be better soon. I know life is just a series of one temporary moment after another. At some point I will see the light at the end of the tunnel and I won't be afraid because it won't be a TRAIN!!!

Yes one time i've been there also. Almost to the top of problem that I don't know what to do and I dont like to talk to anybody. Really at worst because of guilt i felt and am afraid to somebody. That was the problem of dont have any centavo to pay for bills and buy foods. That I dont like to move I dont like to everything until one day i planned to end up my life. Well thanks to God because He did not allow this to happen to me. During that time of sadness and failure of my life in the corner of my mind God speak to me by means of sudden flashed of lights into my mind and at that time I cried very loud that will released my emotions and i was felt good and feel asleep. That time i feel rest. Thanks to the love of GOd to His children.

Hmmmm. I wonder what kind of problems did you experience that lead you to this? if you give it up, then it's over. that's the end of the line. It's very easy to give up as far as am concerned. because i have done it in several occassion. and what has led me into? nothing but the same of old place in the society, while my friends had a career and family, am stuck in the same road. I believe God doesn't give us trials that we can't handle. always put our trust in him. no matter how the situation presents it.

We all go through moments of despair in our lives. We would just like to throw in the towel and give up sometimes. When life seems to hard to bear, it is easy to think of giving up. When i am found with a moment like this, i try to find something to take me away from it. i never want to think that there is no hope for a situation. If i was ever at the point where i gave up hope, I hope there would be someone to guide me on the fight path because there is always hope.

I seem to be experiencing a lot of dark days these days and sometimes I entertain very dark thoughts! I think the worst moments tend to be when I hit the sack as it were and I struggle to get to sleep as there are so many unneeded thoughts in my mind. I think there are two things in this life that actually keep me on an even keel and they are regular cycling and swimming. If I didn't have these two activities in my life I just don't know where I would be. I also love reading and this is for pure escapism, my mind tends to escape into a good book and subsequently into another world! At the present time I am walking along the hallways and coridoors of Hogwarts as I go through my Harry Potter books once again! I think that my computer gives me a lot of pleasure too and I count My Lot as one of those pastimes that I also like to indulge in! I guess life really does go on and it's my hope that one day I will hit the jackpot on the Euromillions Lottery! Andrew

Everyone has our own experience wherein we almost want to loose hope, but we should always remember that there's always a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. after a strong rain that we encounter we will soon see the sunshine after it. we'll just have to give more room for more brighter future rather than staying with the darkness we have in the present.

For sure the overwhelming stress of everyday life can be almost to much for some.I feel that when bills and responsibilities are pilling up and the things you use to drown out those stresses are drying up you should probably try to seek help friend or neighbour to make sure that you are feeling ok and can contine to function nornmally.Friends can be supportive and just a quick talk with them can help keep you going.Life is sure stressful in this economy but with determiniation im sure we can call pull through it ok.

......many times, that it seem there no hope at all, there is no chance because the problem is to big for me to carry on..,but i remember the word of the lord that says,"cast all your cares unto him for he carry it for you"......so then i never lost my hope any more,,i trust to lord every thing, cause i know with GOD nothing shall be impassible,,,,,then my problem have been solve....for me problem is just natural to our life, because we can't learn something if life is always green.

LOST A life like mine is not a life at all. For what lies ahead I already know. Having to know it makes me wanna die. When you'll see me happy, well that's only a LIE... What to look forward to does not belong to my list. I now realized since from start, I never really do exists. Such hopeless acts I've tried and have already done. Hoping maybe I'll know then where I STAND... Not knowing where to go and what I must find. I'm fed up of searching, now I'll leave it all behind. Like a LOST SOUL is what I am now. Wandering in the darkness, listening to a dog's howl... 3/24/2002

Yes i think that i have reached to a point of giving up hope. It started when my father was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis. We left the hospital because the doctor said that his liver is very damaged and that it will never be healthy again and never be cured. Well i guess that time i had lose hope, hope that my father could still survive and be with us for how many years but it came to a point that he is gone. But life is too short to carry these heartaches, we must move on and proceed with life's blessings.

no i had never give up hope there is always signals round us point to hope but only smart guys translate it and know hope and faith our way to success
