There has been a certain drought of happiness lately. I no longer feel excited about things that I am usually happy about. Instead, I feel afraid. I live in fear of being selfish or annoying to those I laugh and live with. I thirst for recognition and affirmation from those I am friends with, afraid that they secretly hate me. I constantly doubt myself, even with things that I am used to and/or good at. I put myself down even though I am trying to be happy. I dress like I'm happy, I smile like I'm happy. I talk like I'm happy. But I'm not and I don't have a reason to be not happy. I want to be happy but its not working out too well. I was okay for so long, why is this happening now? I dont know why, and I want to. I want to be happy.
