Happiness

>How do I be happy?

you can be happy right here, right now with me

all the things that bother you, just let it be
know that you can influence the things around your visions

for example, whenever I see people I can generate good feelings by just being nice

when I go back home, when I think about how comfy my bed is, how strong my computer is for staying with me this long

it's about those things

I'm not saying this lasts forever too

There's no human that can stay happy for extended amounts

like right now, I have some bad feelings
my hair seems to be thinning, and my desk is messy

but I fix the things I can and accept what I did have and appreciated it then

so now I clean my desk

it's absurd to think the worst I can be sad about is not having the 'right' job

things don't suddenly turn right and everything stays that way and you fulfilled your quota of happiness

it comes and goes, just be accepting of it

right now I'm waiting for some good feels, which I just had actually

gave a friend a cold compress and some food for his cold
talked to friend about sports, learned a bit more about it
checking things off my to do list ever so slowly
no pressing deadlines - there's time

the little things

you can't run away from the bad feels by drugs, or by distractions. You must feel them, accept them, get through them
we're in this together

My roommate just left and reading these made me breakdown. I haven't cried that hard in a while. Thank you, Anon.

I've been alone for most of my adolescent years, and after having a short glimpse of not being alone, going back to it hit me kinda hard. I just can't find the joy in seclusion like I used to but I'm too afraid to anything that would actually fix it.

I didn't know I would move you so much, but that's good to let it out. That's the main way with how you deal with the bad times

play a song you like a lot since your roommate left and start dancing to it to be a bit more open, if you're afraid of fixing it

I'm in a dorm as well and also a first year, same as you. I've been dancing while my roommate has been in the room for the past 10 minutes since I couldn't get behind my calc 3 homework and I was all restless, jitty and feeling shitty

here's a good groove song that's popular so you can feel it if you can't find anything

Don't mix alcohol with drugs.

What I'm saying is do not consume alcohol if you are on medication.
It could kill you.

Seeking prefessional help is wise.
