Why can't I be normal and happy like everyone else?

Because no one is normal as much as we want to believe other people are normal no one really is. And sometimes we can't be happy because we are so focused on our negative emotions it creates a negative fog around us that blocks us from seeing anything else.

Happy isn't normal. So many people who appear happy are struggling, just like you. Happiness is something that's found in so many different ways, but it's not found by wishing to be normal.

No one is the same, and we shouldn't compare ourselfs to anyone. We all have different sorries behind, and we all define 'normal' differently. When you say, I wish I was normal like him, he wishes he was normal like you.

You don't need to be normal and happy like everybody else. No one is like everybody else. You may have some struggles that are people around you don't understand but that is okay. You don't need to fit in to be accepted.

Normal is a frame of mind and means something different to everyone. What you see on the outside of a person may not be the whole story. Don't assume that because someone is smiling that everything is "normal". You are as normal as the rest. Some days you feel better than others, but that's normal too.

I've asked myself this a lot before. But what I've come to realize is that there is no normal and happy. Everyone deals with struggles, many of which we never see. "Normal" is really hard to see.

You are you. You are not everyone else, but you can find a way to find things that make you happy and keep them close.

Determine what makes you happy! Other peoples happiness may not be what you really expect it to be like. Just remember that you are on the outside looking in. Everyone isn't perfect. We all go through tough times just as much as the next person whether it be big or small!

All those smiling faces you see can be going through difficult situations too, they just aren't all visible at surface level.
