Hey Caspia. Welcome to TeenHelp.
I agree with everyone else that you are not doing anything wrong! Having faith in something that we cannot see, hear, or feel can be very difficult. I am going to be honest in that everytime I pray, I don't always "feel" something. I personally believe that God is with me and listening, but I do not always feel Him here with me. Just because you don't feel anything, or things in your life aren't changing does not mean that God isn't there for you or doesn't listen. He does! If you really want to believe in Him, then you can! Having a relationship with God is not easy, and you have to pray to Him and talk to Him. It takes work to maintain the relationship, but in order to have that relationship you must believe!
Keep working at it. Keep praying! You don't need to label yourself as a Christian, or a Catholic, or any specific religion for that matter yet. Your relationship with God needs to be built, and then He will help you figure the rest out!! I'll keep you in my prayers! Let me know if you need anything.
There is always hope. PM me anytime. SH Free since 10.20.08
