Is it weird that i'm jealous of happy people?

[WishingICould]

You know those people who always seem to be laughing and smiling? When i see people like that i feel like i'm just an emotionless zombie. I can't remember the last time i genuinely felt happy or laughed. People are always telling me to cheer up or to smile but i just don't have the energy. Maybe that's why i have practically no friends. I feel like i have the weight of the world on my shoulders and that it's only going to get worse. I hate happy, popular people. Some of these "popular" ones aren't even nice people, i don't get it. I don't understand people at all.

I may feel envious of happy people but I certainly don't hate them for it. I don't want more people to feel like I do. At least someone is happy in this miserable life, that's the way I look at it.
Even though I suffer from depression, I am lucky that I seem to see humor in everything. I even find myself laughing at my situation and all the ironies that life just seems to be throwing my way.

Wish i felt like that. I think "hate" is probably the wrong word. Maybe "envy?"

When I'm walking around in public, I'm always thinking of something funny in my head. Then, I'll just suddenly start to laugh. People must think I'm nuts.

People always tell me that I seem so happy and that I smile all the time but my life doesn't feel like that at all. I think it's an act that I put on without even realizing it .. so not all that glitters is gold.

I wish i could be more smiley but it just doesn't come naturally to me. Maybe if i was actually happy i'd just smile naturally.

Science says that it's the other way around.. fake a smile and eventually you'll feel the smile! --> :bigsmile:

When I see happy people shrieking, jumping in joy, and yelling "yeah", I wonder how people can be that happy. Because when I'm happy, I don't do any of those things. And I sometimes wonder how poeple can smile all the time. I used to know a girl who smiled almost all the time, literally. I've never seen her angry, sad, or negative. It's like she got botox injections and her face stays the same no matter what?

There's a girl at work who seems nice but she does this annoying little giggle after every sentence. I don't know if it's just a habit or something but i find it really fake and annoying.
