Fast update I am unhappy I am anxious I feel lonely even though yes I have friends and partners I feel angry, my fuse is a bit shorter than I like right now I feel stressed I don't feel valued I am in nearly constant pain I am always very very tired and will fall asleep if not in constant motion I find it hard to concentrate I am seeing (multiple) doctors twe're working on it see me for details I have also started -doing yoga -going to the gym -21 days of gratitude, sending notes to friends to let them know i value them see: http://amazonvisrandom.blogspot.com/2017/06/trying-to-be-happier.html that doesn't seem to be helping so may try the post a positive thing each day? I tried, and discontinued -headspace meditation app -melatonin just left me groggy the next day many suggestions I got were to do repetitive mindless activities to help with the anxiety, but my life is full of those (tea packing)? and I tend to obsess easily so I am not sure tho...

What are the five key steps that we can take each day to increase our experience of happiness? 1) Bring gratitude to mind: Write down three NEW things that you are grateful for each day 2) Journal: About a positive experience you’ve had recently for two minutes once a day 3) Exercise: Engage in 15 minutes of mindful cardio activity 4) Meditate: Watch your breath go in and out for two minutes a day and 5) Engage in a random, conscious act of kindness: Write a two-minute positive email thanking a friend or colleague, or compliment someone you admire on social media Do these steps for 21 days, and you will begin to see a lasting shift in your mindset towards more positivity. So I am doing #3 and #5
