Why do I sometimes enjoy feeling sad?

Sometimes feeling sad helps me more than being mechanically happy. When I feel sad, I feel like a true part inside of me is asking for attention in order to have a more comprehensive, genuine and even happier picture of my life/ or situation at that exact moment when I feel sad...After all being sad enables us to aknowledge the good and happy moments too, which happen when we are not that much sad :)

You sometimes enjoy feeling sad because of two reasons. One- you pity yourself and everyone secretly likes being pitied( not all the time). Two- you think of the negative things in your life and realise that how strong you are that despite of so many things you still move on..

It is ok to feel sad and in fact it is part of life which everyone goes through. If you enjoy feeling sad it can be your brain telling your self it is ok to be sad therefore making you feel more calm and happy that you have acknowledged how you are feeling

I always say that without the struggles it is not as fun to celebrate the great times. LIfe is a constant battle and sadness does help one to make changes or plan goals and overtime can be constructive! They say with every ending there is a beginning after all.....the rainbow 🌈 which you may have never seen otherwise! Let it rain on your parade but don't let it dampen your spirit! 😜☀️ ☁️☀️☁️😜

It is okay to feel sad sometimes. Sometimes you need to cry and get your emotions out, and many times you do, you later feel better about it. You cannot experience the feeling of happiness without experiencing the feelings of sadness. You learn from your feelings whether they are positive or negative and it helps with your personal growth.

If you are someone who is extremely depressed, you might enjoy the feeling. Sadness is an emotion just like joy.

You may enjoy the fact that people suddenly care about they normally would, it's okay to want attention sometimes. But doing it too much can make people want to stay away from you.

I remember a Louis CK interview where he spoke about hearing a Springsteen song on the car radio that struck him with the deep realization that he was alone in the universe. He pulled over and broke down crying, letting the full force of the sadness hit him. After a while, he smiled up at the night sky, laughing a little in spite of himself. Sometimes sadness is beautiful.

Sometimes people just feel sad for no reason and they like it, it may because they like feeling the way they are and it makes them feel good.

Self pity and absorbing selfishly cause us to remain in a sad state too long. Some do this to seek attention from others.
