I have a good life why am I not happy?

Perhaps the problem is that many people are not truly happy, although there may be nothing really wrong in their life. I guess that's where the "am I really happy" question comes in the first place. We are conditioned to believe happiness is something that will come from the outside, once the external conditions are met. Thus, we never actually focus on developing our internal world, which is the only place real happiness can come from

Sometimes unhappiness can seemingly come from nowhere, and for no reason. I have personally felt this way many many times. What I have learned about going through this myself is that sure, we may have a good life by society's standards, or we seem to have the things that most people want, but we still feel unhappy because deep inside we strive for more out of life than just the typical things that make up the idea of an average good life. It is okay to have good things in your life and still feel like there's more that you could be doing. In fact, I'd say that it's a good thing to feel that way because it means you have more passion that can be released into the world. Keep your head up and truly dig deep to find what it is you are longing for!

Because i still dont get the things i really want. Im still not where i am supposed to be, im still not with the people i want to be with and i cant really appreciate my life because i am focusing on those things i dont have

Sometimes having a good life is just not enough. You are earning well, have a kind family and you're not short of anything externally but on the inside it's just not what makes you happy. Could be your job, your family, friends, where you live etc. Finding out what actually makes you happy is a big pain in the ass and people can go their whole lives without actually realizing what they wanted. Sometimes they do know but they can't do anything about it. I'd say they're luckier 'cause at least they know what they want, it's better than not knowing at all and just sitting around aimlessly breathing. That's what I think at least.

There could be multiple reasons for why you are feeling unhappy. I suggest connecting with a listener so they can listen to you (that may help) or you can connect with a therapist on 7 Cups.

Each of us has 24 hours every day. We will spend those hours and days generally happy or somewhat miserable. There will be a mix, of course, but too many people exist in life instead of truly living. Too many people choose to accept their circumstances instead of chasing all the dreams and desires of their heart.

Do you want to be? Do you let yourself be? We are usually unhappy because we won't let ourselves be happy, we tend to get used to being sad and feel safer as sad because we can except what will happen; More sadness. Sadness is simply us not feeling happy, let yourself be happy and you will be. Is there anything you feel you need? Anything you still need to do? Anything you haven't done? Try to finish these and handle your doubts. Let yourself be happy and pursue what makes you happy.

Happiness is something we each strive for in life. When things are going well we feel joy, peace, and happiness. But when things are not going too well we experience the gray cloud. Unable to avoid sadness, let downs, and disappointments. You keep thinking that things will never get better. So it feels that your life will never be better. When negativity hits we as humans put all our energy into negative thoughts. When you can control your thoughts and actions when the gray cloud appears you are able to introduce feelings of happiness. Start focusing more on why your life is happy and not so much on what is going wrong.

Everyone is susceptible to mental health issues and unsatisfaction in life; it is important to know that your feelings are valid no matter who you are, or what your background is.

It's impossible to be happy all the time so don't worry it's not your fault you may have a brilliant life like pop stars and singers feel sad even if their lives aren't that bad what makes you any different
