What's the point of happiness if I don't want it?

To remind yourself that theres bigger things then ourselves out there and being miserable makes our surroundings miserable and that isnt fair to do to everyone. Even if we arent personally happy in our day to dsy work, home, oersonal lives doesnt mean we shouldnt at least try to put a dmile on before we set out to face our day and the world. Smiles are contagious as are frowns and bad moods, always remember that. Our own bad mood or unhappiness is our own and should be a private matter, putting a smile on shows you how brave you are and that happy can be yours too.

That's the unfortunate thing, isn't it? You don't believe that you deserve happiness or any decent quality in life because of the bad in this world and the experiences that are placed upon you. Some people resist happiness because they've never experienced it or were given it properly and with that, it means it's harder to break their shells. Ask yourselves this: what's the point of the world if we didn't ask to be created or formed? Life stops for no one. The sun burns and the moon shines, and whether you're happy or not, you're still existing. With or without question, there are things that can make you happy. Happiness is not something that's a direct demand, it's not forced. It's just there and it happens naturally, without effort, when you least expect it.

Well, It's just a word after all. What does it mean to you? Or what does it mean to people around you? In my dictionary, happiness is a state of meaning, which involves sharp awareness, You are present there, observe very closely, and everything is balancing continuously, naturally. But to majority of people, this state is "boring" :D What people mean by happiness is usually dopamine release, excess of it. Basically that elation they feel when they use any drugs, or when they give into their addictions (food, sex, etc) Craving satisfied, basically it's mistaken for happiness. To my mind, both states are useful, state of elation, and state of depression. Also, their excess is bad, including excessive elation. To me it's about balance, that's the best state. But requires a deeper understanding, to find meaning in that state. This balanced state is the state where You as a Person have most control. Most creative. Easiest way to achieve any goals you might have. Elation and depression are just telling how you are doing, in achieving a goal. Even if the goal is to have 0 goals :D It's still a goal.

Because you were made for more. You are precious, and deserving or happiness. You may not realize or appreciate your worth in this season of your life, but there is goodness in store for you. There is happiness waiting for you - all you have to do is let it in. All it takes is that one “yes” and goodness and beauty and happiness will flood into your life. You are deserving of love and happiness. Never forget that. I’m here for you, and I believe in every fiber of my being that you are loved, just as you are. I want a better life for you, and I hope you do too. You deserve it.

If you find yourself not wanting "positive" things like happiness, peace, contentment, etc. then you are unable to accept something about your life or life itself. Seeking the positive things in life that other people seek would be a type of acceptance or conformity to a life which you find unacceptable. So in your current state, happiness doesn't seem appealing or even possible. While you may not want happiness right now, you still want some kind relief from your suffering. In your state, the first step to some kind of relief is a basic acceptance of your thoughts and feelings as they are. Acceptance can be difficult and scary but at least it isn't complicated. All that's needed is willingness. Acceptance happens through a gradual process of willingly or deliberately paying attention to your thoughts and emotions as they are right now. Writing about your feelings or talking to someone about them can help.

Happiness is a choice and we can choose to be happy with what we have or we can just be unhappy even if we don't have any thing. We only have one life, why not spend it with happiness and leave instead if dying grumpy? I don't think anyone deserves that. Holding grudges, crying over spilt milk, holding on to past bitter experiences is not a wise thing to do, because we are only hurting ourselves and no one else. No one knows are cares about these and you are not going to talk about them all the time so why hold it inside your heart? Just let it go and be happy.....

Everyone has a different version of happiness. Unfortunately, mass media and social networks tell people what happiness is (or rather should be) and that is where the confusion begins. Happiness to me is not going to the club and spending a lot of money to “make it rain” or show people I have money or flirt with 3 different girls who all have fake boobs and daddy issues. Nor is happiness going shopping and spending away all your troubles. These are versions of happiness being sold to vulnerable people for reasons of consumerism, among other factors, none of which have to do with actually being happy. My advice is to ignore what you think makes other people happy, because most people have no idea what makes them happy. Concentrate on the things in life that give you peace or comfort, even if it is something dark or might seem strange to other people. Happiness is being at peace within yourself, and should never have to do with anything from the outside world, especially material items. I disagree with your question that you don’t want happiness. Everyone searches for happiness, it just has to come from within and be your own version of it.

If you're happy, you'll likely smile a lot more often. Dopamine, endorphins and serotonin are released into your bloodstream when you smile, this makes you feel better within yourself, makes you more relaxed which can lower your heart rate and blood pressure, smiling is actually beneficial for you physical health too! Laughing can reduce levels of cortisol, the stress hormone and can give a quick burst of energy! The neurotransmitters which are released when you're happy are natural pain relievers, thus helping boost your immune system and helping you feel a lot more comfortable as it protects you from aches and pains. You will feel a lot better within yourself mentally but also physically, along with this, you'll likely feel more confident as well as having more energy and will be able to do more activities so you could make more friends too!

It's hard to label a specific point to happiness, because usually I'd think of happiness as being a part of the point of life. And sometimes though, you may not think you want it. And there can be various reasons for this. I know sometimes I don't think I want it, just because it seems like it'd be so much effort to get there, and I've become comfortable being sad, almost where I like it in a sense. And I'm just so tired, where there doesn't seem to be a point to anything. But then once I experience happiness, everything seems so much better and the bad feelings go for a little bit for something good, and in the moment, it's right. So even if you don't think you want it, I think the point is that it's part of what makes you live.

Jules Renard famously wrote in his Journal: "I have experienced happiness, but that's not what made me happiest". There are many paths to self accomplishment (however we choose to name it), each individual needs to find their own. "Happiness" can be heard in different ways. For some, it might sound selfish, and they wouldn't be willing to consider it as a goal, others might see it as a first step, required in order to help others and in order to spread around them positive energy. One may consider happiness to be a default setting when it comes to life goals: it is anything but that.
