Haven't felt happiness in ~6 years.

I haven't felt happy for about 6 years, not even for a second. I think I'm starting to forget how happiness feels, actually I think I have almost completely forgotten, it's real struggle trying to remember how it felt and when I do it feels like I remember only small part of it. I still can feel rather good or other positive emotions, although I must admit most of the time I'm sad unless I spend time with my friends which I do very rarely because they are very busy with their lifes. Is it normal to not felt happiness for 6 years? Why am I this way? What's happening? I'm not suicidal but I'm afraid I might be one day, I don't want to waste my life. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I wish I could have a private conversation with you. Depression is not something to take lightly. If you are feeling this way please seek therapy, talk to someone, anyone. You don't have to suffer and you don't have to do it alone. I've been dealing with depression for a long time but I got help. There is a light at the end of the tunnel I promise you. Keep your chin up. I know we are strangers but if you ever want to talk I'm here.

      They should honestly make an option to privately chat with someone.

            Hey a/s/l?

            ahaha. Good old aim. I miss that.

            I actually use to get on a website cheese.com It was just a random chat room I came across. It isn't there anymore :(
            Needless to say there was a ton of weirdos in there.
