Mine is probably back on the night before my 18th birthday. I went to my best friends house (who sadly I ruined my relationship with) and played this co-op game called A Way Out. It's this cinematic game about escaping prison and it's the most I've laughed in the past 3 years. I could also have just said any number of days when I was under the age of 12, as I loved life up to that point and going to my cousins house to play Super Smash Bros Melee was great too. Since the onset of my depression though that was the best day.

The day I got my first little tattoo. I guess I can show it here since I doubt anyone will recognize me from it.
Its like a legit recreation of what my friend scribbled on some paper so the heart in the center is a little wonky but that's why I like it.

There is no greater sorrow than to remember the times when we were happy in times of misery.

Back in 2013 me, and a friend drove on the highway , and a prospect phoned, they accepted my proposal, it was a good day, and it changed my life. I did many things that I would not have been able to do without the contract, like traveling to many countries, experiencing different lifestyles, it changed my view of the world. I also enjoyed the work.
I LOVE IT!!! I am in the upper Midwest of the U.S., where we have snow and winter 5 plus months of the year. Your tattoo sure looks like a snow flake. We have, where I live lots of people, places, events that have such a symbol like your tattoo. You are a really beautiful person with a beautiful tattoo. Walter

Various calm days walking around various state parks, hanging out with friends, reading a book, just relaxing. The things that people normally say mark the happiest days of their life, like graduating college give me more relief than happiness.
Any day of my 25s.
Just alcohol, sex, dancing, music, drugs, laughing 24/7 and then the same following day.

Hanging out with my brother and playing video games all day together. We had a many times like that. Dark Souls 3 and Halo 3 were the best.

I know that it will be the day I leave this earth. I think some days have been more bearable than others but I cannot think of a 'best' day. For such a long time a constant feeling of dread has been lurking around in my mind and anhedonia sucks any emotion away. I've never particularly enjoyed life, for any small pleasures I have experienced will not make up for the pain.

The day I enrolled in college. Or at least it should have been. My life has never been so good since then. I have so much to be thankful for and am so happy

I can't give an exact day. Somewhere between when I was 5-6 probably. I remember being overjoyed one day in the summer though. I was around 16. No idea why. It just came over me while walking outside under the trees and seeing the sunshine. I'm in my late 30's for reference.
My life at 2014-2017, I changed some of my destructive views and set free from toxic relationships at school. Then these 3 years were comparably good. I knew exactly what I wanted from life, I was happy, full of energy, motivated, in love, but than everything collapsed

I was incredibly happy, ecstatic before a godforsaken sperm fertilized my mom's egg cell. And then this wretched life of mine was conceived. Was the longest most peaceful nap I had taken, been miserable ever since waking up. Wouldn't recommend turning into a zygote!
Perhaps it's too late.

I don't know. Maybe it was a day when my sibling was here and we had fun together. Or maybe it was one of the Christmas days when I met (nice) relatives and got gifts. Or maybe it was one of the days two years ago. Or maybe it was one of those days when those two idiots were away for two weeks and I got the whole house to myself and just mas - had fun the whole time.

I imagine my best days were in my preteen years, but I don't really remember much from those times. The one memory I do still have of myself being happy is when I was a wee little child. I was probably knee high at best. The neighbors were going to be having a yard sale the following day and I knew about one thing they were thinking about selling. There was this gigantic stuff animal that rivaled me in height and size. I knew we would be the best of friends. This I was certain.
The next day I sat peering out the window like a hawk. No way I was risking someone else getting my new friend. When I saw them bringing him out with a big price tag stuck to his chest, I begged my mom for the money and she handed it over without pause. I dashed out the door and fly across the yard. I think I passed Superman along the way as I was moving so fast. As I started to hand the money over the neighbor let out a chuckle. I looked down and I had failed to put on shoes or pants.
Too bad I didn't trip along the way, hit my head and died... Yeah, I know, that was a buzz kill. I took you to the highs and brought you down to the lows. It is like an emotional roller coaster.

December 2012 was magnificent... I remember some really good days... I was 14 at the time!
12/16/2012 - My favorite team was two-time world champion
12/21/2012 - The world would end (at that time I didn't want to die - today I'm jealous of that mentality) ... Anyway, it was fun talking to friends (the day before) and to foment fear of each other. Just remembering makes me feel good.
12/22/2012 - It was the most magnificent of all, my graduation from elementary school (a class trip to a water park
)
15-25/12/2012 was special! If I lived half of that again

Best day of my life was probably a day last year when I went on a walk with my friend. She was too frightened to go over this long, broken wooden bridge behind her house- It was an old bike trail, or something, it had been torn up by hurricanes- so we went together.
That thing could barely hold our weight, it was held together by half a rusted nail and was rotting. We barely made it over, almost fell down the 7 foot drop below it into the mud. I remember holding her hand and laughing when we walked over a portion that was full of holes . . . I felt so close to her, just doing stupid things together. I miss doing things like that.

Sometimes the worst times are the best. There's a silver lining in some clouds - such as "sheltering women". Keeping them employed, safe from paranoid delusions of "rapists" (those don't happen) keeping them financially secure, keeping them hiking and exercising. There's really some truth in your quote. I like it - thanks :) I TOTALLY RELATE.There is no greater sorrow than to remember the times when we were happy in times of misery.

Probably when I moved to San Francisco around the age of 21. I was so HAPPY to be there. I enjoyed even riding BART. I enjoyed the rain. I loved going to eat in Berkeley. I loved commuting all over to see all of my friends. I loved my lackidasical job. My rent was dirt cheap and I was living a nightlife night after night after night after night. I was thrilled. to be leaving San Diego (major metro sprawl - not my thing) for a real city was so much fun. Being allowed to go out at night, see shows, listen to music, run around and play like I was in heaven. It was a dream come true for at least a year. I'd never been happier in my life. I don't tihnk I remember a time in my life that I've enjoyed that much. I've never regretted it. if I ever had children, I'd want the same type of experience for them. It's good to release, go out, see arts, reinvent ourselves and enjoy!
