Half a week to smile.

Post Reply New Topic

Ah, this is weird, but I thought it belonged here.

Okay. Four times a year, at most, I'm really happy for half a week. HALF A WEEK. Most of the time I'm just 'normal' or sad. Sometimes slightly happy, but never that happy outside of the four half-weeks.

So, this was one of those weeks. Everything was great, nothing went wrong, my friend said she was my best friend, and just a bunch of awesome stuff.

Why am I putting this in the Haven? Because it's over. I got happy on sunday, and I'm slipping into hopelessness again.

Anyone have any tips on getting happy for longer than half a week? I don't mean eternal happiness...

I just don't want to feel like I want to die again.

I have the same problem expect I am happy on the weekends ONLY. Monday- Thursday I am alright or depressed. School is just stressful as hell. What I do to try and be happy is make plans with friends. They distract you from life. It may be short compared to the horrors of life but it is better to have short moments than none.

n obsession that can bring you some happines I do that and it helps me. There are times when I feel sad, but that is part of life for most people. I would do this along with talking to your friends, it may give you more to share too.

Thanks, both of you. I'll keep that in mind.

You know what's strange? I was only depressed for half a day after the half-week was over. I'm actually still happy now.

This is awesome! I think...
