Happiness to me is just feeling peaceful and content.
I've struggled with demon thoughts so long that happiness
feels like the peace I feel when they are ABSENT, and then
I can enjoy what's around me b/c I'm not busy battling
around in my head.
I think I first experienced this (aside from happy
moments as a child) when I tried my first antidepressant.
Gradually, those thoughts were gone or easily ignorable and
I felt at peace. It was like "ahhhhhhhhhhh" and stretching
out in the sun like a big lazy cat.But i'm in a med adjusting process right now...so I'm
battling the demons again and longing for that peace.
