Are you happy?

Are you happy and what things make you happy?

Some days I actually do feel happy and other days worse than miserable.

The mundane makes me happy, I'm happy living alone, most kinds of comedy makes me happy, my toy collection, learning, music, happy people makes me happy, beauty, nature..

If anyone wants to say what makes you happy, feel free to chip in.

...food in general, a good meal, the almost every day occasional drink, my two cats, a good book, a bowl of cherries, cental air conditioning and a fan on a hot day, rain, Ben and Jerry's ice cream...

Oh God, don't get me started on this. If I start making a list, I won't stop.

...a joint if I could find me one...

most days I am content with my life
other days...I fall into a pit of anger

I feel happy...when my children and spouse smile...when there are no raised voices in my home...when my house is clean and smells of bleach...when I am alone in my car going to and from work (rush hour freeway traffic and all)...when someone tells me they appreciate the things I do...when I am flying through the air on a rollercoaster...and so on...and so on...

More times than not unfortunately I feel like a basketcase. And that makes me very miserable. But there are plenty of things that do make me happy.. like when my kids are happy and doing well and the fact that they are healthy, like the fact that I am not living in poverty, I have a roof over my head, food in my stomach, clothes to wear.. sometimes we have to look at those things when we are feeling unhappy with life. It does help some.

I am extremely unhappy, I have the idea that my depressions started at 15 when I felt I was gay oriented and wanted to come out. But no, I am not happy and depressions come and go like storms unanounced.

I wished I could be happy and I begin increasingly to become aware I am not getting any younger and wonder if I will ever be happy before I die, though I know happiness can be second or a minute or half an hour and not a full day or a week. I don't smile enough, I moan a lot, but I get happy by adrenaline pumping in me when I dance and sing, themoments are scarce though.

Don't knwo if it is all aspie that makes me that or if it is my dysfunctional family that turned me in this misarable person. Sometimes I wish I was plain imbecile or idiotic not knowing about the surroundings or the world I live in.

I just wish I could have the happiness of a child who has yet no clues of the adult world and that problems that come with it

I understand you Loborojo, and have similar challenges myself. Maybe find out what it is that's making you so unhappy and try to eliminate it. That's always easier said than done, but has to be done if you want to find joy and happiness. You can do it if you just believe you can. Hang in there.

...Snow and the color of shadows on snow, thunderstorms without the threat of tornado, sunrise and sunsets, flowers, animation and cartoons, hiking and backpacking, collecting seashells at the ocean, camping and bonfires, the smell of spring...

not now; kind've sleepy and odd from thinking about internet flamewars, yes I should probably let it go...DAMNIT!

Going to Anime Conventions and cons of people like me.

I guess at this moment I am really neither happy nor unhappy. I'm in a sort of a neutral mood.

Right now im not happy at all because i've gained weight and unemployed but im starting to take steps to change that.

Things that make me happy are a good movie or television show, Music, Smoking weed, accomplishing something for the day like getting my haircut, games, art, exercise

I am happy at certain moments. From my interests usually.

However I wouldn't say that I happy with my life. My life sucks.

Makes me happy:

-Being with friends
-Seeing people I haven't seen in a while
-Humor/Comedies
-Girls
-Music
-Movies
-Marijuana
-Very long walks on a beautiful day
-Thunderstorms
-Walking in the rain
-Swimming
-Sleeping in
-Pleasant dreams
-Fluffy animals
-Small children
-Rainbows
Nature in general
-Running around outside
-Getting respect
-Helping someone, especially a friend
-Screwing around
-Accomplishing something important and difficult
-Becoming less of an aspy and more of an NT (seriously)
-Being independent
-Not being told what to do all the time
-Getting a real good job (which I did recently)

not anymore, my life is falling apart around me, and it's starting to take me with it.... my wife and I aren't getting along anymore. she's started attacking me for my aspie-ness.... freaking out on my when it takes a long time to spit out a sentence, especially when i'm upset. trying to make me stop my fidgeting and hand wringing... yelling at me when I get overwhelmed and shut down..... I understand that I can be difficult to deal with, I've had to do it my whole life... but...........



uhhg

and the worse part of it is my symptoms get worse the more unhappy i am. normally i'm fine with being touched (except around my ribs... that hurts) but if i get too upset I can't deal with it... and the more unhappy i am the more hard it is for me to speak and more fidgeting and wringing and i dont know just thinking about it is making me go insane .


I used to be happy
