Failing Happiness is the place of wilting, not dying, wilting.
I can’t generalize for everyone suffering from Mental Illness, I won’t speak for them; if anything, this shit is so random my own descriptions can’t really match up to anyone else. I do know we’ve all felt “Failing Happiness”…probably every human has.
I know happiness. I see echos…
the birth of my daughter
Marriages
falling in love
joy
and I’ve seen a lot of it whither away…not all!…some. A sizeable chunk (how’s that?).
The question is, how do I cut the rot, cultivate and grow happiness again?
- Be positive
- Find at least one thing that brings you joy each day, and write about it.
- Or take a picture of it
- then write about it!
- Or take a picture of it
- Surround yourself with positive and nurturing people
- BE a positive and nurturing person
- Forgive yourself
- Be Mindful
I know the steps, I’ve made the list! It’s just a long, long way out of this…a lot of work, time. I don’t know if I have it…
Be positive.
