What do you need to be happy?
1- people who care about you and love you (friends, family, significant other)
2- good health
3- enough money to be comfortable
4- a purpose in life (or a reason to wake up in the morning)
5- to be comfortable in your own skin
I think these are the main 5 things one needs in life to be happy. I think most of us on SP are missing one or more of the above. There are other things, maybe success, that would be helpful but not essential to a happy life.
What are you missing?

I think I’m missing numbers 2-5.. but honestly I wish I could be like the other people in the world. The ones that are enthusiastic about everyday and ready to do something amazing with their lives… those people are lucky.
1. No friends or significant other
2. Lots of niggling minor health problems
3. Some savings but not enough income to live independently
4. Only my own delusions to get me up in the morning
5. Not sure I ever had this one
Nicely done.
#1 I have a handful of people who “care” but don’t understand me…
#2 I’m relatively healthy
#3 I make enough to get by.
#4 I seriously have too many purposes.
#5 I like my skin
So…
you just need to ditch that lousy wife / gf of yours. Or smack her into another dimension lol
I thought you said you didn’t make enough to leave her *and* pay child support? So if you had more money and can get rid of her ass… and buy you a new sweet amp… >.<
True true..
Here’s my list of perfect world:
#1 music
#2 freedom to go where the wind blows
#3 people who understand me
#4 enough money for food/shelter
Missing all 5 lol. Well, i do have some family members, but due to their age they won’t be around forever and… yeah, then i’ll be missing all 5, lol. 3 is debatable too, because… yeah, not enough money to live on my own, but not on poverty either (which i might end up in eventually if i don’t find a way to make things work).
1. I have a loving family, but I feel like a nuisance and a bother, to the point where I want to catch a flight and move as far away as possible without a word.
2 and 5. Maybe if I wasn’t so fat I’d feel a little more comfortable being me.. It seems that ever since I came back home all I’ve been told is that I’m fat.
3. Idk. But living in my parents house atm is making me want to gouge my eyes out. I am desperate to leave this shit island I grew up on. And then when I’m hit full force with my student loans, well, I’m fucked.
4. Thought I had a game plan and because of my stupiity it all failed… It all went down hill and everything got worse to the point where I’m struggling to be here for another week because I can’t take it anymore…
#1 i have 1/3 of this family not the other 2.
#2 I’m in the best physical shape of my life. Idk if it qualifies as good or not.
#3 I’m far from having this.
#4 I actually do have this.
#5 I have this at times but it comes and goes.
1- yes
2- depends
3- working on it
4- today, yes.
5- depends.
You seem to have alot of Depends…
