What is life?

[mic1980]

What is life when you are not happy?. It's been a while since I was on or active here, probably lot has changed.
Every day I wake up have a job to go to, finance's are ok have a nice new car nice house.
Put on a brave face at work to family but end of the day you get home to an empty house with just silence and thinking all sorts. Every day I see my ex living her life happy then I'd get the usual texts etc missing me playing mind games messing my head up, cheating on me and of course wanting meet in secret. Every evening a mess now so Wat is it all bout

When you are not happy means you are depressed. In my own experience.

I would also say that you created a life that doesn't really make you happy. Having a job house and everything "they" say you must have is not necessary what you actually need.

Sometimes change could bring happiness.

Adrenaline brings a sort of sense of life.

Try something you never did before... feel free... Do what YOU want and not what you Have to do

Good luck with finding happiness... XxX

just to answer your question, I think life is the best that ever happened to us.

It is not easy, it is challenging. Life starts where your comfort zone ends...

Aye I think the purest thing in this life, the one thing that certainly MEANS something to us is fun.. fun and happiness. Nothing else really matters on grand scale of things.

So have fun and be as happy as you can for as long as you can so long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. Because again I think the only thing that'll matter to you when you're on the death bed is being able to say well you know what? I had some craic all the same.

Serious post and no easy answer as it changes all through life. For me it was to have kids and bring them up to be better than me. For lots of complicated reasons this did not happen.
Coming to terms with this is not easy. Yes enjoy yourself (EI helps and sex for sure) but the real answer is not here. Friends help but most of all, really good physical and heavy workouts are the medicine not meds. But if depressed it can be difficult to get the "kick" to start and a GP visit could be the way to go.

The hardest part of this is trying to look past it.
I have been through some rough times and it took me a few years to get over the shit I went through, although it may not be as bad as many, I was hurt for a while.

I do feel like shit at times, there are good days and bad days, but this I think is my anxiety playing up with me.
Depression is hard to get by, but once you learn how to live it, you will start feeling better and shouldn't feel depressed.

Everybody is different and is affected in different ways, but I hope that you can feel better soon.

I would also recommend you to block the number of your ex if she is still trying to contact you, maybe even tell her to f*ck off as you are not interested in her anymore.
Although it may be a lie to yourself, this may help you a little to move on.
Get her out of your life, then you can start working a better life for yourself.

Funny how different people can be
I spend most of my day looking forward to going home to a bit of silence
People,for the most part,are a bit too noisy for me on a constant basis

Life is what you want to make it. Sounds from your message that it is around the loneliness or lack of companionship. There are many out there who dont have these but also dont have a good job, income, house etc. So on the brighter side you are still a lot better off than a lot of other people. Of course this site is here to help meet for that brief encounter and to fill the void.

Personally I have been through high levels of depression in the past following marriage failure, job loses, business failures. But I picked myself up, ok every day is not on a high there are still lows. Get yourself some goals, go and try to do things that you enjoy. I found my lows got worse when I was in the house alone but got myself out to spend more time with friends and went looking for my next soulmate - takes time but eventually you will be in a better place. Specially with today, its probably the lowes day for those who do not have companionship. Keep your chin up.

Found out the hard way, pride and manliness hid the issues. Now days it’s acceptable to seek help or tell others. Don’t hide fight it.
