I am unhappy with where my life is at this moment in time- I am constantly broke because bills are piled up, and I would love to be in a more permanant job and home. But, the bills get paid, and Ryan puts food on the table for me. So, I am happy in some aspects. I have much to be thankful. I will just be happy when I get a permanant job, and when Ryan gets out of school and also gets a permanant job. And a house. Until that, I am still in that akward, unhappy transitionary stage between student and adult.

i am usually pretty lethargic about life. I feel old and tired of pushing for results for the better in my life! I have been through alot more than the normal person has( i know everyone says that but i actually have). I live for my children instead of myself. I am no longer employed so there is no outlet for vacations! I am upset about not being employed! sure my bf is great but his soo to be ex wife lives with us ..... enuf said! so overall i hide my unhappiness by pretending to be happy when in reality i dont care!

As of this week I'm happy. New job, New Gal, and New goals. Just a few more kinks to work out and I'm good.

It is a peculiar western modern idea that people should always be "happy". If you were happy 24/7 then I don't think that you would appreciate it. If it was christmas every day it would get pretty lame. Anyway, I'm pretty happy. How happy can you be when you work like a dog and have screaming brats at home? I wouldn't have it any other way, but it would be silly to think that it would even be possible to be happy most of the time. I am happy when I am enjoying the free time that working hard and making money affords me. I am happy when my kids and family are sharing fun and joy. None of the happy moments would be possible however without the (figurative) shoveling the sh%t on a daily basis at work and home.

/pretty happy - no regrets

I know i am thankful for what i have and how i got here. AS for my life i am changing it. I am a very unconfident person. I have started the process to make this better. It takes time but i am doing it.

Yesterday was 50/50 i started out sad and tired. I got home and ran 2 miles. I felt EXTREMLY great cause i knew i was doing somthing to change my life.

I have everything i need but one key element is missing and i am tring to find that. That one thing is Love. One day it will arrive.

Ciao.

im not happy, my girlfriend dumped me yesterday

Sixteen 10-27-2003 07:39 PM

I'm insecure, to be honest. Can't live happy like that.

emidew22 10-27-2003 07:56 PM

I think that if you weighed moments of happiness vs. moments of unhappiness on a day to day basis, i'd be on the happy side of things. I don't really like my job, but i like the people there, so i get through the day goofing off with them as much as is possible at work. As far as where i am at this point in my life, i'm not happy. This isn't where i want to be. But when i try to figure out where that is, i can't decide between the past that i fucked up (wanting to try to fix it and be back there) or a different path. I guess you could say that i might not be happy with life at this time, but i am a happy person (as long as i've got a good mix of zoloft and welbutrine pumping through my brain.)

MichaelFarker 10-27-2003 08:26 PM

I'm completely happy right now. I know that's not what you mean. But it's really nice. It's been rare since I lost my job. Thanks for helping me enjoy the experience.

BigDonkey2 10-27-2003 09:12 PM

My mum died on Thursday (23/10/03). She was only 55 years young.
The day before she passed on, she told me that she was happy with the way she had spent her life and had no regrets. It made me happy that she was happy, but also sad that she's now gone.

IC3 10-27-2003 10:38 PM

I try to make myself think i am happy...But i am not

I go through stages where i am extremely depressed. One of my friends girlfriends told me i should go see a doctor about it.

I just deal with it.

Even when i am not depressed, I am still not happy...My recent breakup of my F*ck Buddy is making me realize that i am 25 years old...All my friends are doing drugs, I do drugs. I am single, I am lonely...I just want a nice girl who likes to snuggle up in bed and talk or play fight...Just having fun together.

Having a nice steady relationship...I am missing that alot right now.

NASsoccer 10-28-2003 02:24 AM

actually i am pretty miserable and single right now :/ it is really getting me down as of late :(

supafly 10-28-2003 02:27 AM

Yes, I'am happy at the moment. No stress at school or with my gf.

iktoweya 10-28-2003 03:07 AM

most of the time im in a happy mood i say most of the time because i dont know how i feel when im asleep

ironman 10-28-2003 11:57 AM

Happy

Litespeed 10-28-2003 01:50 PM

Yep, I'm happy with my life. Contentment seems to sprinkle down on me from heaven in droves. Life is only as happy as you make it, that's why it's so great.

I am not sure I agree. I still stuggle with depression from time to time, but because external circumstances are so good it doesn't last very long.

~springrain 11-02-2003 02:42 PM

i stink... i am sad all the time... and completely overwhelmed with life.

i have an amazing wonderful husband, 2 beautiful and wonderful children, i live in a great place with loving and friendly neighbors.. we have a cat, bunny rabbits, flower gardens... i am blessed by many things... i should be happy, but can't really remember a time in my life that i ever have been really happy.

i feel stupid, inept, like a total failure... i rarely talk about it because no one wants to be around someone who is sad all of the time.

... and yes, i am seeing a doctor... i am on anti-depressants... they keep from feeling completely desperate... but the happiness still eludes me... has for most of my life actually.

*hating that i sound like such a loser in this post*

iHawk 11-02-2003 03:26 PM

No, I'm not happy. But I should be. I tend to tell complaining people to be happy with what they have, rather than to bitch about what they can't have.
But my thing I can't have being a certain girl, who I am grown to be close friends with, makes living my own advice pretty hard.

MaGlC_MaN 11-02-2003 04:41 PM

im not happy, all i want in life is one thing, this girl that seems to be perfect for me, and me perfect for her.. she can't get over her ex who broke up with her a while ago.. but she needs to and she needs to give me a chance.. i'm probably the most patient person ever and i'm having a damn hard time waiting for her

Eldaire 11-03-2003 12:33 AM

Yeah. I'm happy. Different than you though. I'm lost and confused most of the time and I don't really know where my life is headed (college woes), but I'm happy with that and I know it'll all work out and that no matter which life I pick, it'll be mine to live.

WarWagon 11-03-2003 09:11 AM

I'm not happy as of right now. Not only am I lovesick, but the stress from school and insomnia because of it has caused me to become physically ill on a regular basis. I'm unfortunately teetering over the edge of a breakdown right now, and my upcoming schedule really isn't helping the matter. My birthday is coming up on the 11th, so I'm hoping to get out and have a good time, and hopefully meet up with the girl I've had my sights set on for a while. A night out and being able to cuddle with a girl would really help me out physically and mentally right about now.

Gun 11-03-2003 11:09 AM

Thankfully, yes.

But only as of recently. There was a major change in my life which sparked a revolution of self-improvement. I've been extremely satisfied with the state of things since then.

noodles 11-03-2003 04:16 PM

no

i'm constantly surrounded by people who probably think they're my friends but don't really know me at all. i had a birthday party that lots of people came to and i realized that very few of them were friends of mine, only one or two of which i would consider good friends.

i had a wonderful, smart, incredibly sexy girlfriend who i think knew me best out of anyone else in the world. but she broke up with me in order to hang out a lot and be friends (and only friends [really]) with one of my friends (i know thats kind of confusing. its a long story). i've been kind of crushed since then; i don't really have much self esteem or self confidence in the realm of women.

i'm not happy because i often find myself totally alone while surrounded by people that i don't really know and don't know me. i'm worried that i'm too shy and socially inept to be able to find someone to spend the rest of my days with. or at least, a few days with.

Hrothgar 11-04-2003 11:11 PM

I'm mostly bitter with some moments of happiness.

wannabenakid247 11-05-2003 04:22 AM

I would say i was happy with my life. Thank God!
