Sounds like you haven't found your life goals yet, your purpose. Well, my friend, there are quite a few people in their 40s and even 50s who haven't found their purpose yet, so I'd say you have the age advantage.
If I were you, I guess I would pack my bags and just go tour the world for a year or two or ten ! Go find out what you like, what you hate, what you can and cannot do, your strengths and weaknesses.
It seems like a huge task right now, and maybe it is, but the only way you will figure this one out is by getting out there and living a lot of life ! Give it 10 years ... when you're 30, I'm willing to bet you'll have a much better idea of who you are and what you want out of life.
FYI, I was also suicidal at 20 (I'm 31 now), and back then, I didn't know anything about the world. I'm glad I at least got to know the world a bit before deciding whether or not to continue. I hope you'll do the same.
It's up to you ultimately, but please don't take your own life blindfolded and without knowing what's out there.

Thank You, I appreciate Your opinion, interesting point. I assume You are right.
Luckily, I have found a person that stops me from even thinking about taking my own life.
I was just trying to look for someone that can help me tackle the issue of looking for motivation. Just as You did.
It is just troublesome with all those feelings mixed up within me. When I feel empty, torn to pieces at times and the world feels so fake, as an artificial piece of cold plastic, where You just dont want to do anything. (I am not proud of those thoughts, because I have a blessed life, shouganai)
I dont know how, I just got used to doing everything with the smallest effort possible. Ironically, when I was young I always gave 110 percent.
Now I just feel like I am walking the earth, bored, kick a stone here, kick a stone there.
Again, bored isnt something I am proud of

since I ve got so much in my life.
