Sometimes I don’t know how to answer a seemingly simple question like this. Sometimes I’m happy sometimes I’m not, but I would never say that I’m not happy to close-ish friends. I don’t know whether it’s my pride that’s holding me back from actually acknowledging my feelings with other people or if it’s just me not wanting to make someone worried.
As you can probably see, this thread has a couple of polls, with simple questions. All polls hide people’s answers and who has voted.
So the first question, are you happy?
- Yes
- No
- I don’t know
0 voters
Second question, do you feel like you can open up to your family about where your happiness lies?
- Yes
- No
- Some, but not all of my family.
- I don’t know
0 voters
Third question, do you feel like you can open up to your friends about where your happiness lies?
- Yes
- No
- Some, but not all of my friends.
- I don’t know
0 voters
Fourth question, are you okay when you’re alone?
- Yes
- No
- I don’t know
0 voters
Fifth and final question, would you want to talk to someone about how you’re feeling?
- Yes
- No
- I don’t know
0 voters
Now that you have hopefully answered the polls above, I shall share my answers.
“Are you happy?”
I was going to say yes but the second I thought about it, my mind said no. I don’t feel like I’m doing everything I’m able to and that’s putting a lot of pressure on me.
“Do you feel like you can open up to your family about where your happiness lies?”
Some, but not all of them. I know I can talk to my mom and my 3rd oldest brother about it, but my dad is old fashioned and he doesn’t believe that mental health problems are real. (specifically anxiety and depression).
“Do you feel like you can open up to your friends about where your happiness lies?”
I know I can talk to my friends about anything, I know that they go through the same thing that I do but in different ways.
hi Izzy I know you stalk my threads 
“Are you okay when you’re alone?”
Most nights, no. I usually distract myself by going on here and talking to my friends and commenting on threads.
“Would you want to talk to someone about how you’re feeling?”
I would because I know it would help me heal. It takes time to heal everything but time doesn’t always do it right. Sometimes all it takes is talking to someone and a new level of healing shows up.
So, you guys 100% don’t have to express in the comments about how you feel, but if you want to talk to someone or just to have a friend then you can totally PM me and we can talk until you feel better and/or pass out from exhaustion. I’m not a therapist by any means but if you want to get something off your mind that’s been bothering you then you can tell me if you feel comfortable.
