For me it was 2011. I don’t even know why or remember it, I just know I told myself it was that year. But happiness. What even is that? Like what does it mean to be happy? Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
That's really a good question. My husband died at age 36. I've raised my kids by myself. I've been in and out of relationships since then. I guess I would say 1987. I was happy before my husband was accidentally killed and my kids had a dad.
Being with my ex during my last -real- relationship I've turned cynical since and cant see things like i used to.
Today I can find moments of happiness in the small daily things. Doing something meaningful for someone. Playing with Jackie. Playing guitar or bass. Making incremental progress on the album and the like. Being truly happy can be fleeting. Enjoy it whenever you can. You don’t have to be over the moon, jumping for joy happy. Sometimes you gotta look around a bit and appreciate the small happinesses.
I’d have to say right now. I have the best kids anyone could want and a wife to match. And the sun is going to come up here in about 4-1/2 hours. What else could anyone want or need to be truly happy.
Think a better question would be when did ya realize ya weren’t really happy. I’d have to say 3 maybe 4 yrs old
I am happy every day. Have a great life and wonderful family/Husband/kids. They are my whole world. Plus my 2 besties who I love like they were my sisters. ~Toni~
It's been a while, probably 5 years. My life has its ups and downs, more ups though. But the downs have been so dark and depressing. Most of my unhappiness comes from dealing with the shitty family I was born into.
Maybe like August? I've had fleeting moments where things were good, but the last time I remember being really content for more than a little bit of time was a day in August, where I got to take a road trip to a concert with my girlfriend. It was just a good day, and I wish I could sustain that feeling.
Probably when I was in high school. Life was much less complicated then. I met all my good friends there who I talk to till this day. Nothing but good memories. Lately, my anxiety has increased and a therapist I saw today said I also show signs of depression. It has been increasingly difficult to cope with, but I'm just gonna do the best I can and get done with college. I have a great support system as well and that helps a lot. Also some good candy jack bud I'm smoking right now lol. Sent from my panic garage. Paper Mario gives me life. tokemon.
This is a good prospective to see. As for myself 2015 from there it's gone down hill. Left to a new city to escape my over controling over protective low self esteem mother. From there I've just been dealing with the bullshit she denied me unable to gain some of the moments teenagers should of had growing up... Not to say it's all doom an gloom but the moments I do have happienes seem to always last a couple seconds at most before I'm back to empty.
