> Is anyone happy? Cause there sure are no meds for this. Phillipa
There are meds that, for some lucky people, make them feel better and think more clearly. What you do with these gifts is entirely up to you. I think that happiness is earned, and not bestowed. It often takes work to be happy with what you have rather than obsess over what you have not. Sometimes, this requires change - change in your internal and external environments. My life sucks right now because of an unremitting depressive illness. Yet, I remain otherwise happy.
If your inside needs work, go see a psychotherapist.
If your outside needs work, go see a psychotherapist.
If your marriage needs work, go see a psychotherapist.These things have worked for me. They might work for you, too.
