Sense of humour !

Laughter is said to be the best medicine, I would strongly agree. I realise that depression or feelings of depression can effect this. I feel like I've not lost matbe repressed my sense of humour by not ate,pting to use it more.
Does anyone feel like this?

I understand my housemates humour and jokes,along with other people but sometimes they look at me like my parents would if a rude joke was said at a family gathering like your not suppose to understand, its annoying,patronising :? yet i don't always join in with the banter, I'm come across as fairly serious. Makes me feel left out and boring more isolated and not belonging.

i used to live with 3 other house mates and felt the same. I was always more serious than them, and made me feel more left out. I was only more serious because i felt anxious when we were mucking about and having a laugh. I was fine when i got drunk but thats about it.

I always subdue my sence of humor...I have a great one really, but it's all inside cracken up,cause laughing with (certain people, like work mates)makes me too vulnerable so i smile and scoot out of the room quick as i can. Also absolutly cant stand work related negative talk. I only like happy....or constructive around me and ya know how that goes.

i agree scardecat, i used to find myself going to the toilet just to get out of the room. i also find my taste in music has changed, now i only listen to 'happy' music which is lively (some bon jovi etc). A lot of the music i used to listen to now makes me feel depressed.

I just get frustrated, they great guys and don't have anything against people wanting to have a laugh but when people say cheer up or smile it may not happen gets annoying. Its not that I don't have a sense of humour it just doesn't come out and when it does i get so nervous it sounds shit and I lose my words. So many times I know that I could say something funny just don't always have the balls to. I get treated like I don't get it because ocassionally I may not laugh. Guess thats something to work on and not being so constricted by what the outcome might be.

I think one reason I don't joke about so much is the tumbling weed effect,you know in westerns were it all goes silent.

anyone got good jokes post them need a good laugh [/b]

lol, tumble weed :lol:

just dont worry about it and try to let go, i do it sometimes and people say, wow i never knew he was like that! 8)

Then i wake up

WHICH WOULD U CHOOSE? CAKE OR BED?????

A HUSBAND IS AT HOME WATCHING A FOOTBALL GAME WHEN HIS WIFE INTERRUPTS,

“HONEY, COULD YOU FIX THE LIGHT IN THE HALLWAY? IT'S BEEN FLICKERING
FOR WEEKS NOW”

HE LOOKS AT HER AND SAYS ANGRILY;

“FIX THE LIGHT, NOW? DOES IT LOOK LIKE I HAVE AN ELECTRICIANS LOGO PRINTED ON MY FOREHEAD? I DON'T THINK SO!”

THE WIFE ASKS,

“WELL THEN, COULD YOU FIX THE FRIDGE DOOR? IT WON'T CLOSE RIGHT.”

TO WHICH HE REPLIED,

“FIX THE FRIDGE DOOR? DOES IT LOOK LIKE I HAVE HOTPOINT WRITTEN ON MY FOREHEAD? I DON'T THINK SO.”

FINE, SHE SAYS,

“THEN YOU COULD AT LEAST FIX THE STEPS TO THE FRONT DOOR?” THEY'RE ABOUT TO BREAK.”

“I'M NOT A DAMN CARPENTER AND I DON'T WANT TO FIX THE STEPS”, HE SAYS. “DOES IT LOOK LIKE I HAVE WOODIES DIY WRITTEN ON MY FOREHEAD? I DON'T THINK SO. I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU. I'M GOING TO THE BAR!!! “

SO HE GOES TO THE BAR AND DRINKS FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS. HE STARTS TO FEEL GUILTY ABOUT HOW HE TREATED HIS WIFE, AND DECIDES TO GO HOME AND HELP OUT. AS HE WALKS INTO THE HOUSE HE NOTICES THE STEPS ARE ALREADY FIXED. AS HE ENTERS THE HOUSE, HE SEES THE HALL LIGHT IS WORKING. AS HE GOES TO GET A BEER, HE NOTICES THE FRIDGE DOOR IS FIXED.

“HONEY”, HE ASKS, “HOW'D ALL THIS GET FIXED?”

SHE SAID,

“WELL, WHEN YOU LEFT I SAT OUTSIDE AND CRIED.JUST THEN A NICE YOUNG MAN ASKED ME WHAT WAS WRONG, AND I TOLD HIM.HE OFFERED TO DO ALL THE REPAIRS, AND ALL I HAD TO DO WAS EITHER GO TO BED WITH HIM OR BAKE A CAKE.”

HE SAID,

“SO WHAT KIND OF CAKE DID YOU BAKE HIM?”

SHE REPLIED,

“HELLOOOOO.......DO YOU SEE DELIA SMITH WRITTEN ON MY FOREHEAD? I DON'T THINK SO!”
