Does anyone else relate with not wanting to be happy?
A lot of people are doing everything they can to be happy, trying different antidepressants, therapy, regular exercise, healthy diet etc. They are doing everything they can to improve their situation, putting in an effort to feel better and experience happiness.
I, on the other hand, have no motivation to "get better" and just don't find happiness all that appealing. I am in fact self sabotaging by stopping my antidepressants, and wasting my psychologist's time when I refuse to take steps to make improvements, and then finding it upsetting that she is getting frustrated with me (which is totally understandable).
Am I the only person who doesn't find happiness appealing, and would rather stay in a depressive hole? I'm aware that there are plenty of people who would give anything not to be depressed and experience happiness. It's just that when I do get happy, it never lasts, and I can't cope with the falldown.
Please someone tell me I'm not the only one?
