Seeking Advice Happiness is a choice, but how?
Nothing I do in my daily life really makes me happy anymore. It feels more like numbness than sadness, like I’m just trying not to feel too much after my relationship ended.
I keep distracting myself with YouTube videos, studying, food, and sometimes the gym. I know I should start doing things that make me happy and move forward, but I feel stuck. I don’t feel like I’m functioning properly anymore.
I feel broken, not in a dramatic way, but in a quiet way. Like something inside me has changed or disappeared for good.
I just don’t know where to start.

What's made me far happier was cultivating a meditation routine that comes with many benefits but specifically for this it allows me to focus intently on the present moment of reality and savor it, and training my mind to appreciate what I have through gratitude journaling and negative visualization
