    Unless you're in your 90s I wouldn't worry about this too much!

    You have plenty of time to find and feel true happiness. Funnily enough, it will sneak up on you when you least expect it. People who search for it eg by spending loads of money on expensive holidays etc don't find happiness - they just have experiences.

  • The majority of people haven't felt true happiness, although they would like to think they do.

    I'd like to say me too. But things might get worse, so this could really be the happiest times in my life. Pretty fucking sad.

    Maybe concentrate on the smaller things more. A lot of times, despite them being so little that have a more stronger meaning. Plus, the bigger things can sometimes be what really destroys you.

    Fall in love. Surround yourself with love. Bask in it. Love is the only thing really worth living for in this miserable world. Your troubles will melt away, all without drugs or silly cloud men.

        The only problem is that love doesn't last forever and will always bring sadness. You should try to enjoy the small things in life, just take a walk every once in a while just for the fun of it and think about what's good in your life, just ignore all the bad things.

    I thought I had been happy once, off and on I guess, figured that was normal. But still I never really knew if what I ever felt was real happiness cause I still felt empty, like I was searching for something. But through a series of events something happened.. Something life changing. I finally started listening, I opened my heart and I accepted the saving gift of Jesus Christ, accepted his death on the cross as payment for my o so numerous sins and asked for his forgiveness! I won't say life since then is all sunshine and rainbows lol but I know my place in this world and the next, and I have a peace I never thought possible. I don't mind sharing my testimony If you want to know more, which I truly hope you do..

      You might as well take a shit load of LSD to go to dream land, because deluding yourself with fairy tales about tortured men will probably hurt you more in the long run

    What is true happiness anyway? I find that I am a lot happier when I'm not alone. With friends or my gf. Life is so much better when you have the ones u love to share it with. Try to stop and take time to notice the little things that might make you happy, it helps bring things into focus for me anyway.

    i think you need to stop dwelling on shit because i had the same feeling. Have you tried depression medication?

    1 Corinthians 13: ...love is the greatest thing. Guess some silly cloud man agrees :)
