Well it sounds like you're feeling quite depressed and having a negative outlook on life, and it may not be what your doing, but you're perception on what you're doing that's affecting you. Try and see a GP and explain how you're feeling and maybe they can help you? Any other advice I could try give is find hobbies, go out and socialize and depending on your age find a goal in life and go and achieve it. Make your life feel meaningful.
Breaking out of facetious mode, though...

Why do you fele like you're wasting your life? What are you currently doing or not doing that's making you feel that way?

thanks for the advice bro. i do have dreams but when i try to accomplish them, i get pretty badly depressed, it seems like my mind really doesnt like it when i try in life, its like it sabotages me subconsciously to bring me back to being useless.
maybe i need help but when i live a normal chill life, i dont feel depressed, i just feel empty
Lifes a b***h but you can improve it, work hard while you're young and you can chill later.

Music my friend. Pick up a guitar and spend many of these wasted hours shredding (or trying to :biggrin:) and enjoying yourself. Either that or try some new hobbies out.

Dude, no offence at all but you are absolutely obsessed with Hilrho and it looks like its bordering on the unhealthy side of things.

Why do you think that?
I do sometimes- I think we all do. I'll post some quotes that make me feel like making my life worth living:

-you act like mortals in all that you fear but like immortals in all you desire

-living is the least important activity of the preoccupied man, yet there is nothing harder to learn

-one should absorb the colour of life but never remember the details

You sound like you're in the midst of depression. It's normal to feel like that, so please don't feel as if you're alone even though it can feel like that when you're surrounded by individuals who seem to be happier/more productive/satisfied than you are.

What are some of your dreams? Aspirations? Goals? Start small, there's no need to go the whole hog and take on a huge project.

I believe in you.

Depression can take many different forms and emptiness is one of them. I don't mean to sound pushy but I would second the getting help idea - therapy can be really helpful if you're willing to try.
