I have a good life why am I not happy?

Try to move from the usual routine. Having a good life is important, but more important is your mental health. First you have to look around, what seems wrong you are not happy. Then try to do new things, to browse and find what you really want to do. Any assumption you can make with yourself can lead to something you really want to do.

It is the person who in my opinion makes happiness by doing constructive or calming things you like. You will have lows in life but to me life is like a roller coaster so build yourself back up after the fall down. Life has ups and down and we choose the attitude in which to make of the best things and improve. Then find out who you are and what makes you truly happy and it will take effort but this life is yours so make no mistakes with adapting to something not as good for you. Keep learning on this journey and when you find happiness share a smile with others as well.

It could be depression, the thing people despise due to how it hits when it has no reason to. You could dig deeper into this.

I think there are some causes that you haven't found yet. Try to see what specific events/people/environment give you the feeling of sadness.

Happiness doesn't come to from exteriors - it actually comes from interiors. It's likely that something within you isn't happy - perhaps your self esteem is low, maybe you aren't getting fulfillment from things or even have some sort of depressive episode. Remember you can always discuss this with the 7cups listeners!

Because happiness comes from within. Look inside and try and find what is missing. It is usually not material things that make us happy but love, genuine connection and self development/growth and to become our authentic self. Look inside and ask yourself; what am I missing? What would make me truly happy?

A good life doesn’t equate to happiness. Your life may be missing something and you just don’t know yet or you could be unhappy with yourself.

This is a difficult thing to experience - I remember thinking 'I'm doing everything I can to make make myself happy, my life looks good when I think about it, but my feelings are totally different!' There are many different views on what happiness is and how you can become happy; I will share with you my view and what worked for me. To me, one of the key factors to being happy is looking after myself - eating, sleeping, exercise when I can. If theres not other obvious cause for unhappiness (e.g. relationship troubles, struggling with work or school etc.), I tend to focus on improving on, or persisting with, attending to those basic needs - This is what eventually worked for me. It took a lot of patience, and it wasn't a smooth journey, but it paid off and now I am overall very happy :) My lows are far milder, shorter, and further apart, and more often than not have an identifiable cause. Of course, if you feel you need help with this journey there are people who can help - Counsellor, doctors, life coaches. If you are struggling, I can't emphasise enough how important it is to reach out and make sure you get the help you need, even if it that help doesn't come at first. Best wishes and I hope this helps :)

Maybe it's because you haven't found your self and your life lacks the aspects that make it fully complete and pleasurable for you, maybe you're living your life pretending to be someone else who you're not instead of being your true self, because if you where your true self, youd be totally happy. Maybe it's because you're trying to live up to everyone's expetations because of societal views, so it feels like playing a role or character in real life and how much longer can you do that

Good life as defined by you??!! Other people's definition of good life.. you dont have to set into a mould of others opinions and expectations... We create our own happiness... Include small fun things in your routine which you really enjoy... Doinv same things repeatedly may be boring like feeling like trapped in never ending cycle... Break the cycle.. do things differently or do different things... Happiness comes from within... Treat yourself better.. love yourself more.. enjoy being yourself... you are special and unique... Share your good deeds with others... Changing perception can change the reality.. I hope you to find your happiness..
