Trigger warning ⚠️⚠️⚠️
Mentally I feel like I'm not here....I have zero purpose so what's the point?!? Everything is so dark. No hope left for me. Just feel like saying gb and being done. I need help, I know I do, but I'm not going to get it. So only one way to go....

Hey there @Loz_3647 what are you up to now? Is there something you can do that is comforting or relaxing. Netflix, sitting in front of heater, weighted or fluffy blanket. Funny YouTube videos.
Purpose is subjective. Maybe your purpose tonight is to self care and take care of yourself. Maybe that is your purpose for the next week or month. And then maybe after that your purpose can be to find an activity that you enjoy. Or maybe finding something you enjoy can be your purpose now. It’s up to you.
life is a journey. Society does not determine your purpose. You can create your own at any moment

No, @Loz_3647, there are other ways to go, better ways. Firstly, do you have medication? I have previously posted that I am very anti-medication, but there are times when I need to quell my overwhelming despair and I resort to medication so that I can get my situation back in perspective. If you're trying to do this without resort to medication then you'll never have peace enough to tackle your problems calmly and thoughtfully. If you do take medication, perhaps you should ask your doctor if you could try something else?
As for your situation, @Loz_3647, don't try to solve everything at once. Sometimes we just have to take time out to let the dust settle.
Sending you best wishes for better times ahead.
