The term 'be careful what you wish for' comes to mind. If anything, this year has reminded me to be grateful for what I have, and don't try to force anything into place as life will never work like that.
As others have said, please seek professional help. What you're describing sounds like depression; you don't want to live but you don't want to die - that's exactly what it is, just feeling empty. I've been there and it sucks, but the weird thing about depresson is there can always be a glimmer of hope. It can be the smallest thing that makes you happy, as long as it doesn't harm yourself or others. Mine was watching Louis Theroux documentaries, funnily enough. I was so depressed I couldn't even watch the television. I had horrific brain fog, which I still suffer from, but it got better. Slowly but surely, I have started to feel human again. You can, too. It takes time, so don't give up.
Ammi (who I just want to say has been a star throughout my own struggle  ) has sent content from a website called Bored Panda, and they posted this which brightened me up the other day:

I will reply to everybody else in due course. But that website is fantastic. So thank you Ammi and to you for sharing x
