Helping those who I think really need my help & taking on a leader position and setting a good example for the rest of the team (and even the opposition) makes me happy. It's the kind of happiness I can feel deep down inside, and I can't help but smile afterward when I'm by myself.

Fortuities like this.

Ok it doesn't make me HAPPY, but it contributes a tiny bit to it by being funny.
I guess happiness comes from many small things... and you just notice the one thing pushing you the final way into it.
I like to feed a lot on attention. Hmm. Of course, it's gotta be attention I reciprocate, getting it from people I don't like/value is a hassle.


An exception which is alas no more valid, is weed.

I could be in an extremly depressive mood and hate the world hate myself hate everything which can be hated... And then roll up a J and take a few puffs, and just lose all the negativity.

All my worries would fade, either away or into a positive "not a problem, a challenge" light.
It was usually combined with some euphoria.

I'd go outside and just marvel at the beauty of everything alive or seemingly alive, like wind.
Birds, sunshine, you name it.

It was a great feeling. One of the greatest things I've felt in my life.


Edit: By the way, my old marijuana highs' effects are very unusual, haven't heard of anyone get even close to them.

So, kids, don't do drugs. Drugs are bad.



Since my "new" (more than a year) marijuana highs are impossible to compare with what they once were, the only recent times when I've felt that mood was when I was extremly tired, like after not having slept for over 18 hours.

Maybe because all the thoughts running wild in my head would just shut down for once, and I was experiencing the peace of truly living in the moment?
Maybe.

I don't think that I'm a happy person at all, really, just someone who goes through the motions of living life as I should. Each day is just.. another day until I die.


That's certainly not uncommon. I think it's important not to dwell on where you are right now and instead try and see where you want to be in a few years. Then you can do a little something each day or whenever to help move yourself towards that goal. Even if it's only self-dillusion, the idea of progressing and growing somehow as a person can be enough of a daily reward to keep you on the up and up.


But that's the thing. Setting small goals to just to accomplish something little by little.. but for what? I know what makes me feel 'good', but those feelings are fleeting. Everything that I do seems ephemeral and I always wind up coming back to this feeling as though I'm stuck.

I like making other people 'happy' because I don't ever want them to feel how I do. But as even in helping others, I don't do it for me because it just doesn't really gimme that "ahhh, I've done good" feeling, rather it's like.. "oh well, there's another person."

Bah, I dunno. Sorry to get all emo - maybe I've been talking to Jamie too much.

You're obviously not alone, I feel similar to how you feel. Plus almost everything in this thread that people have mentioned is just fleeting happiness and feeling good. Obviously I like friends, girls, sex, food, beer, etc. but all of those things are just fleeting happiness. I guess being with a girl I really like is probably the closest I've come to any happiness. That never lasts too long though, at least it hasn't for me. And I like my friends and everything and I wouldn't want to lose them but they don't really give me any 'happiness'.

I'd say some of the only things mentioned here that are not (hopefully) just fleeting happiness is a spouse and family and a job you love. Personally I can't really think of any jobs that would actually make me "happy". When I accomplish something like a good test grade that's only fleeting happiness as well, for like maybe 5 minutes.

I do of course enjoy the little things and that's what keeps me going. Are you saying Susie that you don't even enjoy all the little things like a good meal, beer, friends, boyfriend/girlfriend, computer games, etc.? Aren't those the things that get you through life at the end of the day? Even if you aren't actually happy you can still enjoy stuff for fleeting moments. If you get to the point where that fleeting happiness isn't enough then that's when it starts to suck; I've definitely been there as well multiple times.

So anyway, maybe my little story here can make you feel better about yourself, or at least not alone.


Of course I enjoy the little things but like I mentioned (and you have too), that's all they are, little things that get me by. I think that's where I am right now, just kinda stuck. I have to continue to create and make things to look forward to so that I can deal with being so dismal all the time but even that's starting to take a toll on me.

But it's nice to see that I'm not the only dissatisfied person out there.

I'm happy when I'm on the edge one way or another. I'm not emo or depressed or anything, but I need to push myself to the limit to enjoy myself. I do it with everything I do.

Marijuana, blow jobs, food, etc.
People who fail to distinguish Socratic Method from malicious trolling are sadly stupid and not worth a response.

Knowing that I have an exciting life ahead of me with someone I care deeply for, and enjoy being around. Also happy through understanding myself and knowing that, even without her, my life would be a fun, interesting one.

Then there's all the little things that randomly happen, of course, but the real core happiness comes from my companion and love of self.
Think. :)
