When was life last good for you?

[butterfly3]

My early teens was filled with paranoia, anxiety and depression. Then there was a kind of intermediate stage between the start of 2019 to mid 2020 where I was actually chilled out and happy for once, and life was actually pretty good. Then I started a new school after summer 2020 and all hell broke loose and now here I am, worse than i've ever been.

God, what I would give to experience 2019 - mid 2020 again. It wasn't even that special, but I was just so at peace.

The summer of 2018 was at its peak. I went on an amazing road trip with family and that distracted me from my depression; it even helped me cope with my father's passing. And for once, I actually felt more or less like a normal person. I doubt I'd experience that level of relative normalcy and peace.

before I took the "vaccine".

forgot to mentioned.
making ryan smile that time a few months okay.
it for once since 2016 lit my world that is always veiled in darkness.

Life was last good for me when I was 17. I'm a out to turn 49 in January. There were some happier moments mixed in those years but all of them tainted with health and cognitive issues. I remember being able to feel peace and contentment but I can't remember how it felt. I can't experience it.

like 10 years ago... maybe? honestly not sure if life has ever been "good" but I guess as long as I was drunk and high in college I felt like it was in the moment

2019 on the whole was a good year for me, i was physically fit, mentally well, doing well in school. december of that year was when i relapsed and attempted again in february 2020. the last time i was doing well and didn't live with the knowledge of a mental health relapse, probably would have been when i was 9. but i was already traumatized and had anger issues, but i was happy enough i think. depression hit when i was 10 so nothing has been the same since

It was never good, only less bad. I have never enjoyed living in the world.

My time on earth as a prebuscent when my awareness was limited to the experience of an innocent wide-eyed kid. The time in my life when I would come home from school, cut an apple into thin slices, microwave some peanut butter, sit infront of the TV on my stained living room couch and pretend my remote had voice control as i manually shifted from channel to channel. That was the last time I can remember feeling genuine happiness.

I guess in 2017, from then on I slowly declined until I reached the breaking point in 2020.

I fondly remember those simple days, my bestie was still here, my parents stopped seeing me as dead weight and had faith on me, I worked hard on what I liked and I was at peace with myself.

Sometime before I turned twelve. It wasn't ideal before but at least then it had a healthy balance of good and bad. Ever since then it's just been straight up bad.

November 2017. A single piece of paper changed all that. A letter from the government.

before elementary school

 

[lessonlearned]

fall/winter of 2018 was the last time i felt decent i guess. not happy but not terrible/suicidal. guess i had mild depression.

Life was "good" when I was in the womb ? Not even that because my mother had no business having me at all (especially because she's the one who first abandoned me)

Life was "good" when I was never thought about. As in when my "parents" were born or growing up. But if I'm going to answer like I should ? Comparing myself to the tragedy that others have gone through Mmm..

From being one years old to about 13 , I was "okay" ( at 5 I was literally left on a doorstep, but I know people have experienced worse)

I'm now 23.

 

[TheManIllNeverBe]

Truly good for me would be my time in high school in the mid 90s through college and work in the 2000's, ending with my car accident in 2011. It's pretty much been downhill from there.

 

[JamesUK]

1990 was pretty good at times. In fact all the way up to 1992 really.

 

[MaidenException]

2018. I was accepted into my dream school for my PhD. I have since failed out because of my health issues.

When was the last time life was good for you?

Mine was at a local bar w a reggae band playing and i was belting out Bob Marley. This was June of 2021 about a month before i slid into depression

I honestly don't even know if my life ever truly was good.

Four months ago, I thought I finally met someone but was wrong. Those feels lasted a month. Not it's back to hopelessness.
