What's the toughest and hardest decision you ever had to make?
What was the toughest decision you had to make thus far in your life? How do you manage to stay happy when others around you are sad and depressed and trying to drag you down with them in their downfall? I'm in my early 20s and I've been working hard on focusing on myself and being in control of my emotions. I'm doing way better than I was a couple of years ago. Honestly, I skip all the sad songs or the sad memes because it just doesn't seem right. I know things like that play a huge role in our "mental diet". But it seems like everyone around me is really sad and depressed all the time. From my mom to the classmate who I don't even talk to lmao. Does anyone else try too hard to make everyone happy?
I constantly feel responsible for everyone's mood. I feel like it is my job to make sure everyone around me is having a good time. If people with me aren't having a good time I feel like it's my fault, like I am boring and there must be something wrong with me. I try to be funny all the time. I seek validation through making others laugh. I have abandonment issues and I feel like if I can just keep everyone happy then they won't leave me. I am also terrified of conflict and I rarely show negative emotion because I am afraid people won't like me if I do. I am constantly trying to manage everyone's emotions. Does anyone else have this problem? People who are always cheerful and seemingly happy - how do you do that? Do you ever believe most people around you are secretly unhappy?
I know I do. I find it hard to believe most people are happy. I don't know why. But I wonder, what do you think? Are most people secretly unhappy? Could this be true? Feel like I've been pretty down and stressed out recently so I just want to be happier and more positive around people. I want to become a happier person.
