Why can't I feel happier? Less alone?

It could sound like you’re depressed… I know the feeling all too well… been there many times where I am just walking around saying “I know I should be happy… but…” It’s like something is missing and you just can’t figure out what it is, so you’re just going around trying to figure it out by asking yourself, are you doing well enough in school or on the job? Don’t you have as many friends as you wanted to? do you not go out enough n’ party, and if not how should you change it, and how can you change it? do you got losts of friends but they don’t seem to be there? are you feeling invisible and so on…

I don’t know if you’re having a depression or not… could be just a winterdepression n’ it’ll pass away soon as spring comes, but I found these 10 signs on depression… if you feel you got 5 of the 10 symptoms for a longer period, then I suggest you go n’ talk with a doctor or a shrink and explain that you don’t feel happy (don’t say you got a depression or that you think you got one, cause too many docs n’ shrinks these days will take your word for it and without asking any or enough questions just give you some pills and that won’t help you)

1. You feel sad and down, get easily annoyed and overreact on critical people or small accidents.
2. You don’t really feel happy about anything. You’ve lost the interest about something you used to look forward.
3. Your eating habits is changing. Either you don’t feel like eating or you eat to make yourself feel better.
4. Your sleeping habits changes. Either you can’t sleep and wake up hundreds of times during the night, or you feel like sleeping about 20 hours a day.
5. You’re extremely restless or the other way around, you’ve stopped up completely n’ got no mimic.
6. You got no energi and feel so tired during the day that you don’t even feel like writting your own name.
7. You can’t concentrate and have difficulty about making a decision.
8. You feel guilty about something. You blame yourself a lot. You feel worthless and like a failure.
9. You lost your lust for sex
10. You’re thinking your life isn’t worth it

As I said I only found this list, but still if you feel like at least 5 of these things is bugging you over a long period, then you need to talk with someone about it. It’s something you need to take seriously, cause if it is a depression it could destroy a lot for you if you don’t do something about it.

hope this could help you… n’ cheer up okay ;)
