RE: For true happiness you must first experience unhappiness.

in #life7 years ago

Unfortunately so many people seem to take mood altering prescription drugs to alleviate uncomfortable feelings. I do think that this is of benefit for people to get them through hard times but it seems like people just continue taking these drugs for ever. Seems like this would alter the ability to feel unhappiness or happiness. Just always feel somewhere in between.

Happiness Is Not a Destination

In my experience, happiness is the feeling one achieves while working toward positive and worthwhile goals. I highly recommend trying it with your mate. :)

@anthrovegan You're correct about the drugs. Instead of facing the issues and dealing with them, the issues become constant companions requiring constant medication. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of real healing happening for millions of people.
