Ditto

Actually I'll edit that, feeling 'low' sometimes rather than 'depression'.

It's not the challenge Mups, there will always be challenges, every day presents different ones....It's how you approach and deal with that challenge....

I get moments of being very high then moments of being very low, the lows are very much short lived these days,.

To be honest Art, I need the low times to appreciate the high times, if that makes sense.

Re: On A Scale Between 1 - 10. How Happy Are You? Or Change Happy To Miserable?

I presume 1 is suicidal and 10 is within a finger touch of paradise? I will say honestly that that most of the time I feel pretty happy. Define happy? For me, that means I feel healthy enough for my age. I feel good in my family and they feel good with me. I am satisfied with what I have and don't stress wondering how I'm going to get more. I have enough to be comfortable and I have a damned side more than a lot of people in the world. So I feel lucky as well as happy. I live in a great country that has plenty of happiness and optimism inducing sunshine and healthy fresh food: and a health system that works. I find the less you judge other people and try tp think of ways to punish them for not being like you: and the more you concentrate on seeing the good in people..the happier you are. As always. Not a sermon..just what is right for me. If something wicked my way comes..then I may be a 2 or so for a while. Ifmy wife and son died..I would minus 10. If my wife could retire and live the life of pleasure she has spent her whole working life earning: and my son could finally relax from studying and smell the roses..i'd be 10 plus all the time. If I was invited to join The Rolling Stones..I'd be a 20

If you want to be sad, just look at the black and white photos of previous recessions etc, that is where the reality resides.

Re: On A Scale Between 1 - 10. How Happy Are You? Or Change Happy To Miserable?

I'm generally a happy, optimistic, glass half full sort of person but I have sad spells sometimes.

I soon get over it by telling myself 'Things could be worse'
