The depression will stay there and show up again as soon as you sit alone with ur self , its a way of distraction , and a good one as long as you’re solving the problem of depression on the side , also sometimes depression is strong enough to disable people from daily activities so they need a talk and mind rearrangement first

Just my opinion of course but do you truly like being alone or are you just saying that because you feel like you bother people when you hang out with them? If I were you I'd grow just a tad bit of a "selfish" personality. Look out for your own happiness and do what you want. If people don't like you then too bad. Sure you may have to cut some people out of your life but think of the new amazing friends that could replace them.

The ultimate goal is to become happy

the first thing to do if you want happiness is to eliminate confusion from your life by determining what you're going to do with your day/week ahead. otherwise you will fall into a spiral of chaos and achieve nothing. I'm talking to you from the heart of the spiral right now.

I built these habits and its 100% right ! Gratfulness meditation social connection and Flow. I would add the habit of smiling.

Meditation is about excepting bad thoughts and knowing that you are not your thoughts, they are just thoughts. When you learn to accept It by looking at It from a second perspective and then letting It go, you create more headspace which makes your situation more visible which helps you to clearly see what you need to improve and that way you work your way to happiness. So It is not about inserting a positive feeling and suppressing the other emotions because the bad feelings won’t go away. When you have holiday for example after a view long stressful months and you have been suppressing your emotions with work and stress the empty or negative thoughts will appear again when you have nothing to push away your bad thoughts.

Love this channel everything about it is screaming what I have been preaching to others for a while now and I can share this channel so others can see this too

Started watching your videos recently. I've watched about 5 so far. I've been sharing with friends your videos since I think they are so well put together and different from others especially when you're giving the examples

I'm really thankful to this channel. I've been following it for the last 6-7 months and lately I'm finally starting to change my life. Thanks a lot, improvement pill (I apologize if I made some mistakes while writing but I don't know yet english perfectly)

I just stumbled upon your video out of nowhere and this is what I needed. A sense of hope and knowing I can do things that will make everything alright in life. I have been in an all time low for the past few months, and now I have a sense of hope and now I know I can make everything better. Thank you so much for this wonderful video the animations are great too! I have also joined your subscription list and looking forward to improving my habits. Great work !

Improvement pill!!! I love your channel so much.

I love you man! You're changing lives believe me!

I’m just now realizing the power of knowledge in acceptance. We should understand that we will always be able to solve the problems we face as long as we think about it.

I want to say thank you for helping me with my life I will always cherish this channel and respect the work that this man does for a living.

I listen to guided meditations to fall asleep each night. I don't work at really *doing* them. I just turn them on and drift off to sleep. I've been doing that for over a year now and I can honestly say my internal dialogue has started to change. It's been a really strange and wonderful experience. (Not saying that it happens without any work, but it doesn't take as much active concentration as I thought it would.) Also, if you're like me and you have trouble with gratitude statements, I like to write down things I love/enjoy. So "I love the way sunlight looks when it's shining through the leaves" instead of "I'm grateful for sunlight." Just a thought. 😊 I'd highly recommend listening to Brene Brown's talks!

Yes! We create our own happiness with some effort and consistency, and it's absolutely possible for everyone

I have found purpose in life again, and thanks to you @improvementpill this video will hopefully help so many other like me find their purpose and motivation in life. Never lose hope, never give up, i failed my exams 3 times before passing it eventually... :)

I have written journal and made social bonds to reduce my overthinking and negativity spiral before i see this video. But, seeing this made me more confident with my doings. Which sometimes is not really make sense. Thanks for explaining this improvement pill to make life better 💕

I really needed this video. I live alone, far from friends and family for the past 3 years. The pandemic and lockdowns got me in a negative headspace. I had no one to vent to. I caught up with a close friend and she interrupted me by asking "are you happy?". I wanted to say "sometimes", but deep down, I truly wasn't. She noticed how I complained and ranted in most discussions and claimed I wasn't always like this. That's when I knew things were bad. I had no idea how to start being happy until I saw this video. I'm looking forward to putting these steps into practice.

Love the animations, the content is improving a lot!

Stay humble and keep driving

I have had issues with being happy for quite a long time. The suggestion I heard a lot from people to try to fix this was get a hobby that I like and spend my free time doing that; basically the third habit you listed here. The only "hobby" I was ever able to enjoy much, though, was video games. Out of all the games I played, one was my favourite: Dark Souls. And one boss in particular was always my favourite to face: Knight Artorias. I hadn't ever really known why he was my favourite fight. I always assumed that it was because he was always such a challenge, but looking back on it after hearing what you said, it seems like it was probably a flow state that made it so much fun for me. Little story aside, I would just like to thank you for making videos like this. I have been trying to figure out all of the odd things about myself for many years but wasn't able to learn why I did things or how to make my situation better. Stuff like this is really helpful for someone like me, as I am sure you are aware of from all the other appreciative commenters one can find under these videos. Needless to say, you have earned another subscriber.

Thanks bruh..you videos have helped alot ..I appreciate your hardwork and dedication..Peace!

Making fun of things usually used for me Just like yesterday I hit a motorcycle because he crossing a one way street without any warning, my motorcycle got broken and my father scold me really hard Well what did I just do I just makes fun of it to myself like how about I didn't had a single scratch despite how hard I just fell or the first thing that I was thinking that time when I just see my motorcycle. It works well for me, sometimes you can always have fun with a little misfortune you see even though I need to pay for my own motorcycle repairing fees, I can from now using bus or walking to my destination which I rarely do.

4:39 that's me in the background right now watching this video and rethinking everything what i made wrong in life

I am grateful for this empowering video showing me how to overcome negativity in this game called life.

I enter the flow state when I watch your videos You are wonderful ❤️💪🏻🔥

Although happiness is egoistic desire by itself we cannot achieve it without others. Harmony is the key, have a beautiful day amazing universe 🙏

I had a big depression within the covid lockdowns and always thought I was introvert, but with all that time spending alone I felt incredibly sad. Then I met a girl I really really liked. It gave me something to look forward to. I saw her nearly every day and that spark of light got me out of my depression, and for everyone who has not experienced it: it’s the happiest and best feeling I’ve ever had…

Very inspiring video! I loved how you didn't just give generic advice but actual habits to implement. keep it up!

Wow i think this is the best and most practical "how to Happiness" video i have ever saw. and i saw a lot. Thank you!

Flow state is kind of nice but I nowadays don't really go into flow sate only now and then but I meditate a lot which is something.
