I think I may more of a happy person than I thought.

Posted 12-29-2008 at 12:26 PM by OddjobAbe
I thought I was a miserable little tosser (and that may well remain), but if I listen to a corny song or songs that are supposed to be emotional, I find myself overwhelmed with a feeling of pride (of what I don't know), and find myself picking up an instrument and playing along to something a lot more lively or bouncy. I am trying to figure out whether this means I'm trying to rid myself of depressing thoughts whilst retaining my 'maunginess', I'm much more happy than I thought, or that I'm going mad.

Any thoughts, or will I continue to figure this one out myself?

Don't worry, I'm frequently the same, and can switch between both states in 1 day. Severe mood swings really really suck.

Though I think in your case that's called adolescence.

People are usually doing way better than they're aware of. It's easier to find something to complain about, or something to be disgruntled at, but in essence, we can always make ourselves feel better if we try real hard.

I think it's just your way of handling the situation, good for you!

It's just a shame that anger bounces along to me just as easily - I once actually found myself incredibly wound up seeing a Beatles CD next to one of Emily's Britney Spears CDs.

But now you say that, yes, it seems to make sense, thanks. It's funny how you don't really fathom it out when it's yourself, isn't it?

Maybe you've found one of the things that makes you happy. Pursue it, bitch!

If anger gets you going, the birdie song would surely do wonders.

I shall try that next time I am angry, though I fear that it may enrage me further.

That's the idea. It's a veritable positive feedback loop.

I see. I thought that you were smarter than to suggest that, and it appears I was right.
