Here is a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry be happy
In every life we have some trouble
When you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy......

Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The land lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Look at me I am happy
Don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number
When you worry call me
I make you happy
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got not girl to make you smile
But don't worry be happy
Cause when you worry
Your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy (now).....

There is this little song I wrote
I hope you learn it note for note
Like good little children
Don't worry, be happy
Listen to what I say
In your life expect some trouble
But when you worry
You make it double
Don't worry, be happy......
Don't worry don't do it, be happy
Put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down like this
Don't worry, it will soon past
Whatever it is
Don't worry, be happy

Give up.

When you truly don't care then you do what you want, which makes you happy.

you have to find it internally. Small changes. Letting go of things that keep you from being happy in yourself. Learning new things. It doesn't happen over night.

But I totally hate it when people say 'fake it until you make it'. Faking it is so empty and hollow it makes things worse on the inside.

don't depend on others for happiness

find it within

strive for joy in your life, it lasts a lot longer
than happiness

By starting each and every day with THANKS.

always works for me...ooo ooh ohoh oooo ooohohhhoo o ooo don't worry be happy

What she said.

Find what made you happy the last time, and do it again.

Start out by being good to yourself. You deserve it. Stay close to family and friends. Remember that it makes them happy knowing that they make you happy.

Do something that brought you pleasure in the past. But, don't try to relive the past.

And as someone else said previously. You can choose to be. So quit feeling sorry for yourself and start now.

Giving your body the elements it needs to be healthy. Rest, exercise, a good diet, ect..

Giving your mind the elements it needs to be healthy. Basiclly the same thing as you do for the body.

Giving your spirit the elements it needs. For some people this is religion, for others music, there are lots of ways but try several things that lift your spirits and make it part of your needs list.

Believeing you can be happy is tough but if other people can do it, in sometimes terrible conditions, it is attainable.

Give yourself a set amount of time to feel sadness after losses. Even small losses such as changes in family structure, economic changes, let down after the holidays need time to be adjusted too. If you have had a big loss in your recent history it tends to amplify smaller losses so factor that in.

Set aside time to laugh and feel good. Some times you have to give it a boost. Look up the joke threads, watch funny movies or tv, do something silly that you find fun. Celebrate holidays, take luxery days, make wishes come true.

When you are happy take note of it. Write it down in your journal or note it on your calendar. Let yourself enjoy it. You are entitled to be happy and any other person living or dead. Refuseing to be happy is self punishment for some reason and you can think about that when you are NOT having a good time. Laugh your face won't crack.

On days you don't feel like it drag yourself out of the bed and out of the house. Walk; preferably in the morning light but if the weather is cruddy go to Mall Walkers or a any well lit place.

Fakeing it until you make it sometimes can really help people relate to you on a positive plane and help not dig the hole you are in deeper. People don't want to hear constant complaining so you have to check yourself even if you don't want to, think it is fair, or even it is fair. Misery might love company but nobody loves misery. Faking it sometimes you will surprise yourself and find that you really aren't faking it and actually enjoying yourself.

Limit the TV & the Computer. It is fine but a lot of it is negative and it tends to break up your focus and concentration. Especially if it replaces things you want in your life. Or you get caught up in dramas that have no contribution to your life.

If you need a counselor to work with JUST DO IT! If you will spend $50+ to fix your hair why not spend the same money to talk to you in absolute confidence to someone to help you think through your issues and maybe give you another perspective.

If you need medication with other elements of therapy USE IT. If you are diabetic and need insulin or have and infection and need an antibiotic you would use that. Why not rebalance your body chemistry if it has shifted from whatever reason? You are a big girl and can stop if you don't like the result.

Hope this helps. Hang in there.

Look for the rainbow in every situation, if you can't find it get yourself a box of 64 count Crayons and color your own!

Try being a smart-@ss. Those "smart remarks" work for me and often have truth behind them.

Hell, what could it hurt to try?

Heal your wounds.

Find happiness by giving happiness. Find a purpose. Make a difference.

Start by kicking puppies, stealing candy from toddlers, and tripping nuns on the sidewalk. It works for me.
