Thanksgiving is almost here and with all the problems we could have are you happy? Problems always work themselves out. Happieness is so important this time of year. People pick up on negativity and all heck breaks loose. Dont let problems get you down.

Yes I'm happy. Today is Thanksgiving, I'm taking it easy today, because I have so much to be thankful for. You see I'm poor and don't know where our next dime is comming from but I have God, the love of my family, and my country, these are the important things. Material things is what money buys, so as long as we have the important things their is a lot to be happy about

I'm not happy today. I can't make myself be happy. *shrugs*
I worry that my unhappiness will affect my son, since he picks up on it. But other than that, it doesn't really make a difference to me what other people think about it. My problems don't seem to be "working themselves out", though I am hopefully getting into therapy again soon, which might help.

Hang in there. Sunshine is always around the corner. Medication works wonders but sometimes I just go to the mirror and say i love you. This site can be good for recognizing that we are depressed. Hopefully talking will help. Fake it till you make it is only good for so long. Keep a positive attitude.

I am happy, stressed and worried, but happy. They say you should live one day at a time but it is not always easy. Maybe for the rich but not for the poor. Unfortuantely I am the poor. There are more reasons to be happy then sad. I love the holidays but this year I can't afford gifts for my children which makes me sad. we are all together, happy, safe and have a lot of love for each which is all that really matters. I have a wonderful husband, family, and extended family who loves me and that is what happiness is all about.
