Are you....?

[SkullKing84]

.... I'm more "meh" then happy.

Rent went up and hours at work got cut. But, spending time with my son everyday before work makes me feel better.

I suffer from clinical depression and I have all the emotional instability that goes along with it. But on the whole... yes, I think so. In fact I'm pretty sure yes. My life is a fun little life. I do feel sad occasionally, of course, but overall it's enjoyable.

Honestly, no, but my prospects are good. I'm engaged to a woman who is also sexy, smart, and funny, with the added benefit that she ISN'T rabidly jealous of my interactions with other women. We both want kids and we both want to grow old together.

The reason I'm not happy is because she's currently in grad school and I live with my mom halfway across the state. No, my fiancée and I didn't meet over the internet, we met and started dating in college. Anyway, we agree she needs to finish grad school while I do what I'm doing to get started on my career path (I'm a part-time video editor). Once she's done, we'll get going on getting a place of our own and start planning the wedding.

So again, not happy, but my prospects are good.

For the most part I am happy right now, but this year has been quite shitty for me. I have been feeling extremely sad every once in a while and have been getting upset over extremely stupid shit way too often. But when that isn't happening I am usually pretty damn happy.

 

[SEXTON HALE]

Hmm...
Thats a tough one at the moment i dont feel like shit so yeah pretty happy.
Though this has been known to change rapidly and violently.
Im going to enjoy this while I can and deal with whatever comes my way later.

 

[Camarii]

Yeah, happier than in a while. Spending your time just having a good time with your friends, sailing through school and doing what I like makes me happy.
Also, just a while ago I made a complete personality turn and found myself, calm, very calm and positive about things. Like there's not a care in the world, that's nice, I hope it holds on a while, being unhappy sucks.

 

[Lawnmooer]

I'd have to say I'm happy.

I'm currently single and I've got no plans for my future past the next 2 weeks (My last 2 at college) I'm kinda out of options of what I need to do and I'm not sure I'm going to get all my work done in time...

But I've got great friends and I'm not stressing out so I feel great.

I really do think my optimism is fantastic though.

 

[F'Angus]

I wouldn't say I'm happy, but I'm not unhappy..I accept that there are problems but they're just normal.

 

[anthony87]

I'm honestly not sure. I'm in college but I've no idea what I want to do with my life. I push away people who try and get close because I overthink things and convince myself that it'd just end badly anyway. I seem to lack ambition, which really pisses me off.

But I'm not unhappy. Maybe content is the word I'd use to describe myself? I've no idea but I know I'm not unhappy.

On the other side of the coin, I'm not hurting for money. I see my friends often enough. I'm living comfortably more or less. I'm just lazy is all so it's by no means bad ^_^.

 

[3quency]

At the minute I'm doing okay.
Last year was pretty shitty but mostly for reasons that'd make me sound like a whiner.
But yeah, income, friends and a comicon this weekend so all in all not too bad thanks.

 

[Woodsey]

I'll be happy when I don't have to read about the bloody Irish Church Act of 1869 again.

A-Levels are poo.

 

[darksuccubus]

Well... I'd say no. Minor problems include having to re-sit an exam or else I'll fail the course, which drives me insane because I really don't want to disappoint my parents after all they've done for me. One major problem that bothers me is that I've never been in love. I'm not talking about sex, I am quite indifferent towards it, I mean the feeling of love itself. I'm 20 and I never felt it and the scary thing is, I don't feel the need to be in love. I feel perfectly comfortable being alone, which probably indicates how utterly egotistical I am. So that bothers me more and more, especially since I started going to uni, where it's considered a bit weird to be single. Also, I often feel the need to just live somewhere with no technology, in the place with endless summer and few animals (maybe even someone I love, when and if that happens). But then I remember such wonderful things like gaming, internet an so on and I understand that I couldn't exist without it. And then I get angry at myself for being so pathetic and then I try forget about this wish. I'm not saying that I always feel that way, this only happens when I have nothing else to think about, but when I do, I feel like crap.

 

[Thundero13]

Right now this second I feel happy enough, which is about as happy as I get, though a lot of the time i'm fairly sad, no reason for it of course, I have everything in life I could possibly need or want, I guess i'm just a hopeless case who'll never be happy, oh well, moments like now when I feel ok make it all worth it I guess =)

 

[Burst6]

well on one hand

I'm overweight
ive never had a girlfriend

on the other

i have a great family
I'm doing pretty well in college and i have a good future as an engineer.


so.. well I'm not exactly happy. More satisfied. Yeah someone else in this post said that you can't use happiness in this situation because there are times that I'm happy, but not all the time. I'm almost always satisfied though.

 

[bullet_sandw1ch]

aside from my religion teacher [yes, i go to a catholic/cristian school] automatically failing everyone so she dosent get fired [she used to give 100s across the board, so they gave her a probation, where if she gives a grade of 100 shes automatically fired].

 

[The White Hunter]

I am very unhappy. I am too hot and very tired, also overburdened with work from placement and desperate for some time off and some good sleep for the first time this year.

I'm relatively content overall though.

Captcha: ginned up...

I wish.

 

[doomspore98]

Actually, yes. I have an amazing set of friends, I just got into the best math and science highschool in the state, and I have some amazing parents. School is about to finish up, and I'm looking forward to next year. Even though it's been a pretty stressful year, it's been one of the best in my life.

 

[Broady Brio]

I'm not constantly smiling. But I know it could be so much worse, so I tend to not complain about my 1st world problems.

 

[DoomyMcDoom]

I've done terrible things, things which haunt me, no matter how hard I've tried, I haven't been able to escape them...

Every day I wake up wishing I hadn't, but my life is not mine to take, I have debts to pay, and damnit I will pay them before I die.

Now, am I happy you ask? Well considering my attempts at happiness all ended in either grievous injury or job loss, or both... putting me in a worse position than when I started, no, I am not happy, happiness is ill befitting of the poor, and ill befitting of a monster, therefor I am not happy, nor will I likely ever be.

So yeah, on the plus side my life's been so much of a shitshow that nothing seems capable of suprising me, and I barely feel anything anymore, so it could be worse, the self loathing and the constant emotional stress of having a mind full of nothing but chaotic noise, hateful shouting and a cacophony of screams is kinda... alright, I guess, it doesn't torment me as much as it used to, or maybe I am too used to torment.

But hey, even though my bright spots were short and ended in pain they were worth it, I got to be a cocky, happy-go-lucky chick magnet for about a year, then I woke up and it was all just... there again... So yeah, I wish happiness on others, and I can give a whole whack of advice in a lot of ways, for a lot of things, simply because, yeah, I've been there, unless you want advice on how to spend your millions, and are uninterested in helping those in need, in which case you're on your own.

I've studied people for a long time, I know a lot about human nature, and behavioural patterns, and the effect of perception, I'm quite able to act like I'm happy/content, and make others believe it, even when I really really am not.

Some might say "Seek professional help" I have, out of 4 different "professionals" 3 prescribed medication that made it worse, and one was stumped and even at one point got fed up and said to me that if I didn't want to live, maybe I should just kill myself... yeah, reeeeeaaal helpful.

Now, sure I'm probably going to get a ton of "just kill yourself" responses to this, but even I know that suicide is not an option, I owe too much to too many, and I figure if I'm going to die, it isn't going to be until I at least make sure that my death won't screw over everyone I care about, or if I get run over randomly or shot, but that's not me killing myself, that's incidental death, not like I can control that.
