just generally, how do i trick myself into being happy?

#

nothing too bad is really going on in my life, i just always feel depressed for no reason. like there’s something wrong all of the time, even if there really isn’t im just always worrying. how do i trick myself into being happy? i’ve tried listening to happy music or music with a high bpm and surrounding myself with plenty of light, but what else could i do to make my mind happier?

ok first off, i wouldnt recommend tricking yourself necesarilly due to that at the end of the day you might just realize your not genuinely happy. id recommend finding a hobby, mine personally is gaming, im not happy doing it but it keeps me off my feelings, i personally have issues of my own like depression my mom went to the hospital the other day, im fighting my dad in a court battle. i couldnt see my mom who was in the icu for 2 days. so thats where i am in life.

make urself busy, get a job or join an Activity where u go out of ur confort zone and meet people, happiness is a state of mind only u can give to urself so try to meditate about that

#

whatever works for u is what matters

It’s interesting that you’re looking for a ‘trick’ to happiness, as if it’s something that can be faked, the reality is that happiness isn’t something you can just force or trick yourself into, it takes time and effort and maybe some uncomfortable work. If there was a shortcut to it I’m sure that everyone would be already using it

first. if you listen to sad/slow songs then stop. it makes it worse trust me. Second try and get "obsess" with something you like thats, like a sport. and when i say obsessed i dont mean like 9 hours a day. I mean it like, "Oh i have nothing to do... which means I can do the thing I like!" thats just my opinion though.

i do a lot of things to distract myself. i never really like being on my phone for too long or just sitting doing nothing in general or else it’ll get me trippin out again. i always like to be out doing stuff for as long as possible, i sew, practice guitar, call my friends, play some games, sing, i cosplay and make my own cosplays and props. im busy and have projects all the time, but even so im still just always thinking and there’s always stuff going on in my head
