Counting the days

I've reached a point in my life where I really struggle to keep going. The thoughts in my mind just drive me crazy sometimes and I wish I could just numb my brain. I'm a religious person and have a strong belief in God but can't reconcile why my life has ended up the way it has. The only conclusion I can come to is that somehow I've fallen out of favour with God and now I'm on my own. I have a very loving family and they mean the world to me and I feel I've let them down. The sad thing is I so wished I could have been a better man for them but I just couldn't be the husband and father they deserved and that drives me crazy. I don't want to end my life but really feel like I'm just going through the motions. I honestly don't look forward to anything in life. I do enjoy doing stuff but it's very temporary and given the choice of living life and never having existed, I'd choose never having existed without a doubt. I guess I've always had a depressive dark side but I'd say I'm now suffering from actual depression in the last 3 years or so. I don't really know why I signed up here. Not really sure what I expect to get from here and whether I'll even come back here but it's been 'fun' to just write these things down so I guess that's a good thing.

Believe in yourself, your a better man than you think. It's a blip in your life that your going through, and as, you say you have a wonderful family. Open up to them and tell them how, your feeling and I'm sure you will get all the support and love you need. Good luck
