How to deal when you're not happy?

[Weaver31]

If you not trolling...

I hope things get better for you bruh...

I wish I was trolling but I'm not. I will say my experience taught me a lot...just wish the Ls I took wasn't so expensive and long lasting. That's the part that hurts...plus at my age...I feel awful staying at home. It hinders my growth.

I feel the same way...

I hate living with my parents. I always end up renting a place on AirBnB and staying there for a few weeks or just getting out of the state for a few days just to see different shyt.

U just gotta keep working towards your goals

Ye it's apathy

I hate being stagnated

I'm not content if I'm not making moves. I feel useless if I'm not making myself useful in some way either for myself or other people

I have a need to be great I need acknowledgment. If I feel looked over or fogotten I feel low. I shine so hard because I'm great at a lot of things but once people forget then im feeling bad again. Thats why I'm so good at school or music or what ever I do. I need acknowledgment.

If it's not something I really care about them I'm apathetic about it. I can't live being content with what is going around me. I want more and I'm chasing it but it's not happening as fast as I want it.

I am like that too.

It is not a great way to be...

You will feel like shyt 99 percent of the time.

You are a probably a narcissist and suffering from a lack of narcissistic supply...

Brehs i'm in a period where i'm just not happy. I been in this funk for months and I haven't been able to claw my way out of it. I've done so many things and I just can't be happy. If I do find some joy it's only temporary and i'm back to where I was. It's not a deep dark hole or a dramatic depression it's just a lethargy. I'm just not happy.

I don't want to be miserable everyday.

So brehs what can I do to escape this place I've been in for so long cause I don't like it.

Lexapro or Prozac would do the trick

Nah I'm not a narcissist cause I'm not self centered or selfish or self absorbed. It's more to do with past experiences

Think about it like this
"I need acknowledgement, If I got it then tell me I got it then"

"Certain people need to tell me they're proud of me
That mean a lot to me"

Those 2 verses some it up

First things first. No one is happy all the time. Dont get it confused. Its natural.

Secondly, those feelings you are having, you are having them for a reason, they are telling you something, you just have to reflect and see what they are trying to tell you.

Thirdly, the only way to create change is to change. Get healthy, stay active, eat right, meditate and create a gratitude journal or just contribute to my thread. Active work on eliminating toxic factors on your life (food, people, media).

Oh...like friends and family...not people in general?

 

[Prynce]

Thanks for the help brehs it

after today I'm not shedding anymore tears about it

Just got to figure out I guess

 

[CinnaSlim]

pride has been holding me back because I don't want to look weak but idk

Breh it's kind of hard to avoid thoughts cause they just pop up on you and then once you're in funk it's hard to stop thinking that way

Practice. Its a mental muscle you have to strengthen. That's why i emphasize meditation.

I should be more clear

It's just hard for me to understand that nobody really cares

Everybody is self centered

I don't get people for the most part.

Even though I have friends I feel loneliness because most people for self while I'm about everybody.

I made the mistake of thinking people were like me I guess. I have too much faith in people.

Gratitude, patience and self-validation. Shift your focus from where you think you need to be. You are where you need to be. You are where you are at because you still are learning from your experiences. That's what life is about and you will never stop growing and developing.


Shift your focus to positives. If you are always in a mindset of lack, nothing will ever be enough. You will always want more or what you don't have. Appreciate what you have and you will create space to have more.

Shift your focus to you. You can not control other people, you can not fully know other people. Trying to is futile. Their thoughts, opinions and actions are based on their experiences and perspectives. Its not about you because they cant really know you fully either.
You can only control yourself, of you are not satisfied you can change. It is also important that you take time to know yourself and why you are not satisfied. If you know what you don't want, then you know what you want and can work on manifesting and achieving that.
