Are you happy with your life?

[SuperVeloce]

Not at the moment. I have no friends really, non at my school at least, which makes me look like a loner. I also have no girlfriend, and indeed never have. Ever. On top of all that, I have so much school work and I'm falling behind badly, my parents are recently divorced, and I'm soon to be leaving school and (hopefully) going to Uni. Which scares me rather a lot....

 

 

[mr quick]

I'm rather depressed, I feel as if I need to be alone - I can't, because if I'm out of school it's on my permanent record, for all possible future employers to see.

[Capricornus]

I am pretty happy in my life right now. I am 23 years old, and I have a great career, my own place to live and my own vehicle. Not to mention that I am in great health. Things are going well financially. Its a great feeling because in 2009, my father died of cancer and I felt I would soon waste or commit suicide because I felt like I lost everything. I have always had a great relationship with my mother and still do, and I had to realize that I did not want to give up in life. Just in a great place right now.

Wow! Alot of you guys need to get your sh*t together! You may not have a GF and you may hate school.. But seriously.. It's not like you're stuck in a third world country! Quit crying on a forum and start doing something about it!

Im not in a committed relationship, but i have a job i love, i have the best friends i could ever ask for, and though these days its grey, wet and cold outside. I have a great year to look forward to.. And most of all, i get to spend time in an amazing group of people doing this:

 

 

Everyone feels down every now and then. But look at the big picture. You probably all have food, shelter and a loving family (even though you might not feel like it) Get the f*uck out of these forums and make a change!! Whatever it takes! You only have one f*cking life, make the most of it! Even if it takes recycling bottles to eat (i've been THAT broke)

 

Like the title of my video says.. MAKE A MOVE!

Life is pretty sweet, I quit my job two weeks ago and am finishing on Friday this week. I am looking forward to having some free time again.

But what about money?

I have saved enough to get by for a few months until I move overseas. Money isnt everything.

To people who answered "No" (sort of related to my previous post in here):

 

 

[Outcast]

My life is amazing. And I'm working hard to make sure it stays that way.

[albanyave]

Yes i am happy with my life. Not only am I happy, I am pleased. Almost everything is right where I want it. I still have right much time left to do a lot of things that I haven't done yet.

 

Each day is a new discovery. I hardly ever have a bad day. I always try to develop the life that I was given.

 

Smile and you will find that you are happy.

[Deffpony]

To those of you who are talking down to others complaining about their lives, while I agree that many people dont know what it is to have a truly bad life, one thing I have learned is that you can never judge someone else for what they are going through.

 

Everyone deals with certain situations differently, and psychological conditioning plays a huge role in how people feel about their lives.

[EscoLehGo]

No, I'm not happy at all with how things are going but it's nothing an income upgrade can't fix which is hopefully around the corner, Allah willing.

[El Dildo]

short answer?

 

yes.

things are going pretty well.

[Potato Boggle]

No I'm not exactly happy and I haven't been for a decent chunk of my life due to the f*cked up family I live in..

My brother is an ignorant sh*t that raises hell over the smallest things. I had an alcoholic father who did the same thing plus verbally abuse us and make us feel like worthless pieces of sh*t till we kicked him out after a physical scuffle last year. My mom developed paranoid schizophrenia when I was about 7. She ends up drinking with her pills and relapsing every few years and I think its happening again .

 

Besides my family and the ocassional depression that comes with it I guess my life isn't all that bad though.

[BabeRuth]

So far it's good.

[Adriaan]

Another video for the people who answered "No":

 

 

[Raavi]

I'm very happy, I have an amazing girlfriend, a great job that I actually enjoy doing and my girlfriend and I are both healthy. What more could I ask for? Sure there are ups and downs but that's life

 

[DEALUX]

 

@Adriaan I love you.

[Sneakerhead.]

Things are going pretty well, so I would say yes.

[Ziggy455]

 

I hate my life.

[Typhus]

I have always hated my life. And I don't mean that in a melodramatic sense, I'm being sincere.

My earliest memories are of wanting to commit suicide. And the problem is that no matter how far you go, the memories never go away, they just clatter around inside your skull, poisoning every good moment and relationship.

It feels like someone broke me, when I was a child someone shattered me into a million f*cking pieces and all I've ever done since then is try to piece myself back together.

Frankly, I am not sure why I haven't killed myself yet. Sometimes I look back and wonder how I've survived this long and when I recall all the horrible things I've experienced they seem like the memories of another person - so much so that I can't be sure if they ever happened at all.

[Dale Nixon]

I'm drinking.

Have you thought of writing an autobiography?

[Absurdity]

Gettin' round to it sooner rather than later would be best advised, Typhus.

Right now, yes, despite all the upcoming challenges. I have some pretty big dreams right now and have been putting in work everyday for months on end. I just wish my financial situation would get better, I cant really progress much without the money. I wont be able to live on my own, wont be able to pay for my car, wont be able to afford flying lessons, the list goes on. Cant even find a decent job. I did consider selling coke at one point...

 

But yeah, everything is decent right now. I enjoy every single moment of my day, and I remain very optimistic about the near future.

Please dont be a coke dealer. I like you mr mister and from what ive seen selling coke whilst profitable does ruin a lot of lives and has a lot of violence associated with it.

[Finn 7 five 11]

On the long term though, I wouldn't say I'm too happy. I'm not exactly sure what it is that does it though.. I think overall life is depressing in a way.

 

Huh, yeah. Funny you say that. That's how I feel. I am content enough I guess but, I dunno, it's difficult to explain.

 

I think my biggest problem is not enjoying getting older because I grow away from people ect.

I can relate to this in many ways. I worked for a security firm for a few years and lost friends on the job. I think seeing so much bad sh*t just sort of flicks this switch in your head where narcissism and pessimism sort of takes over. I've tried writing it out but truth of the matter is, I'm still sort of going through that horrific period in my life and I believe that once I've fixed my life and gotten over all the guilt, and loss, then perhaps I'll write up an autobiography.

 

I'd like to hear about your autobiography, Typhus. You sound like you've seen some sh*t too.

Yep, thats precisely why I never ended up doing it. One of my close friends got into the game and ended up being kidnapped by a couple guys and also had feds raid his apartment, but luckily he already quit and found nothing on him. Not even a phone.

[Kifflom112]

It's going fairly well now actually. There always seems to be one petty conflict after the other, but no big deal.

 

I'm reading more again, which settles me - I've seemed to notice.

[Shoumaker]

2013's been a really hard year for me so far but I know everything will be fine again soon.

 

 

Are you happy with your life?

 

Yes I am perfectly happy with my life. I have a wonderful family, great friends. There are people who don't even have that much so how much more can I ask for?

[Carbine23]

Although things aren't terrible they could be better and some things still bug me. In late 2010/2011 i was very happy but then things started going downhill and its been one bad thing after another. The last bad thing was my dad losing his job and it's been almost a year. Things improved a bit but they could still be better. I have hope that they will, but i just don't know when. Random amazing moments have happened before but not for a while.

 

But overall i guess i am happy in a way but then again they could still be better.
