you are happy with those around u but not with yourself. Spend some time alone getting to know the real U.

First find who you are and more about yourself . Try personality test by an MBTI  . Go through the description of your personality . You will then understand what makes you happy ,what you want in life and then you can enjoy the life .

if you are happy in your life all the time, you will loose the value of it . we know what happiness is after facing the sorrows if their is no sorrow then happiness doesn't have it's value so try to appericiate sorrow and u will understand the true joy

Hey, im in the same boat with ya bro, but honestly, you cant solve anything overnight.....so chin up!\nFirst things first, you have to redefine your idea of happiness.....and when you stop prcrastinating in your life you will reduce stress. noones life is perfect! NOONES....look at britney spears for godsakes!\nmotivation doesnt come before  change......\nchange come before motivation....so get out there and do something, anything little thing that might make you a bit happy and one little thing will lead to another and soon you will be motivated enough to make bigger changes..etc....and maybe, go find a therapist you trust and like and talk things out.....cant hurt. good luck!

u know when u ask this question, means ur seriously lost. \n\nTry doing the following:\n\n1. write a diary.. mention ur frustrations, ur hates or peeves or the people who have hurt u. these would tell u things that u dont like. \n\n2. mention ur dreams.. make cut outs from magazines of the perfect things u want in life.. this would tell u your aspirations. \n\n3. catch up on your hobby or join a meditation class, this will teach u relax. \n\n4 lastly, train your self to care less about what others say.. it will teach u independence of thought, word and deed and also make u care more about ur own needs. \n\n5. try talking to your self. it helps me maybe it might help u. \n\nto find your self u need to do soul searching, there is no perfect formula or a place to do it.. just some conscious effort. all the best

I'm not truly happy, I guess I'm pretty happy though when I put it into perspective.. But I don't want things to stay the same as they are now. Since I'm very young and have lots of time to change things, I hope to be truly happy in the future and find everything I am looking for. I hope that for everyone else too.

I felt exactly like that after I had accomplished the "expected minimum criteria" of an outfacing happy life; the house, the family, the good job, etc.  \n\nI decided to tackle the things I wanted to do in this life, regardless of what people expected from me.  I went to an opera last summer and realized the best part of the opera was watching the violins.  So, I decided to take violin lessons!  Now I'm a middle-aged violin student walking right into my teacher behind the kids!  I don't care, it makes me happy and entertains me.\n\nDo what you want to do now, don't let anything stop you.

Try Confidence Club.com, the cds they sell may be useful, either that or try a confidence coach, maybe even some counselling.  I know exactly how you feel and I have tried all the "positive thinking" techniques but sometimes you do need a little help.

Hi Fragile,\n\nI'm sorry that you have not experienced Happiness in your life. You sound young, so you still have many things to learn. You are becoming a Woman, and that is not always easy. \n\nI have been happy in life, and I've been sad too; and I'm 30. Here are my tips for happiness:\n\n1. Get a Relationship with God\nThere is nothing more important in this world than your relationship with God. God is the beginning of each and every thing. He is the Reason why you are here. He created you, and placed you on this earth for a  reason..Fragile, nothing in life lasts forever. Parents can get divorced, people pass away, your best friend can leave you, your husband can leave you--but God will Always, Always Love You and Be There for you. If you Love Him--he will Love you 100 times more. Happiness comes from Him. He is your Strength in the worst times of your life. He is also a source of Peace...Whether you become a Christian or a Muslim--you will not be complete as a woman until you get God in your Life.\n\n2. Love Yourself.\nWhen I was growing up, my family thought I was the strangest thing. At first I tried hard to fit in: but one day I decided that I liked myself. And it was the best feeling in the world. I didn't look to them for approval--although I still loved and respected them. I didn't look to schoolmates for approval. You have to do the same. \n\nYou say you feel pressure to be skinny--well you should look in the mirror and realize that you are Beautiful. When I was growing up, people made fun of my high forhead, my lips. But my mom told me my features were beautiful--and she showed me beautiful African women who looked like me. You can start to admire women who arent a size 4-there are many plus sized models who are beautiful with curves...\nYou have to first accept yourself. When you do that, nobody can come along and make you feel bad about being you. That song, "The Greastest Love Of All", talks about that. \n\n3. Dont Depend on Man, Boyfriend, or Husband for Happiness.\nThat is the biggest mistake that  most women make. They make a man to be their God. If a man loves them, they're happy. If that same man leaves them, they want to cry and die..The truth is that the Greatest Love of all comes--loving ourselves..We women give men too much power in our lives. Our worlds revolve around them. No, your world must revolve around you. Fill your life with things that make you happy--volunteer at a local Boys & Girls Club, learn how to sew or speak Spanish--the point is to Get a Life!\n\n4. Follow Your Dreams\nSo you feel pressure to get grades. Realize that your parents only want you to suceed, thats all. You are just preparing for your future....Realize that if you get good grades, you can get a scholarship to a good College and move away from home. There, you can have space and become yourself. .But, most important, when you get a little older--you will start to have Dreams. You have to follow your Passion. Whether you want to be a nurse, doctor, florist, or business owner--you have to make a plan to make your dreams come true. Do what you have talent for, do what makes you happy.\n\n5. Dont follow the crowd. Be an Individual.\nI know peopl, right now, who are hooked on drugs because they were afraid of the "cool people" who made fun of them for not smoking and drinking..My 25 year old cousin is a drug addict because of that..Fragile, people will make fun of you for not smoking weed, not having sex, etc. You have to be Strong--be a Strong Woman. You cant follow those people off a cliff. Only the Strong survive.\n\nGood Luck and I hope this letter want too long! :)

no one can answer this question but you. what do you feel you are missing? companionship? love? whatever it is, you have to be the one to find it and fill it. it will have to start from within yourself and fill from the inside out. sometimes a good friend will will the gap until you find what you need. it also could be because you dont feel as though your life is fulfilling enough and you need to make more if it then what you are doing now. i would not recommend drugs and alcohol. those are a temp fix and will only leave the empty spot bigger with time. if you need help, i know what you are going through and can give you all the advice i can. feel free to contact me.

First you need to find out what it is that you enjoy doing, and either turn it into a full time job, or find a job that your happy doing.\nA carrer can only be had by experiance, I suggest you look for something that not only makes you happy but also makes you enough money to give you the things you desire. But be forwarened, money does not buy happiness. To fall in Love, will happen when you least expect it and in gods planned time not ouray enjoy and live life to the fullest

Think positive, have faith, move on.\n\nRemember that living is NOT an option, but it is a blessing. \n\n\n"For us to have complete satisfaction and contentment in life is not counting what we have, but knowing what we can lose if we let go..."

Try and it get over. You are the only one that can make yourself happy. Dont dwell on breakups or hurting other people's feelings. ITs all point of life. Move on. Everything gets better in the end. Lifes short so think carefully :) The best of luck 2 you!
