    I feel exactly the same. Most aspects of my life are a complete mess but this constant feeling of emptiness is horrible. I always feel on edge & I don't know why either. Are you on meds? Some side effects can cause what you're feeling. Have you spoken to anyone?

    I feel the same way. Have you ever used the Enneagram? If not, you can Google the word Enneagram and take a free test to identify your personality type. I'm a Type 4, and one of the characteristics of a Type 4 is to always feel as if something is missing. There are several web sites that explain the Enneagram, and some of them also offer good suggestions on how to handle the problems specific to our type. For example: http://drdaviddaniels.com/growth-for-type-4/
