What would make your life happy/happier at this point?

Imagine this : You are in your 30s You have your own home fully furnished, nothing too fancy but big enough to give a separate room for each family member You have a family car.. Not a luxury one, just a normal mid sized SUV U have no loans, no emi, no obligations You don't make a crazy amount but have some job security making early 6 figures a month.. Question : Are you happy? What else would you buy, what else would you aim for? What are the other necessities.. We all know there's no limit to wanting more.. If u don't want to upgrade to luxury version of stuff u have what else do u need in life?

please share something you have been working on and would like to become really good at doing it or even if you are just dreaming about it and would like to start doing it. It could be related to anything in your life.

I am sorry my first post was supposed to be an achievement or CTC /salary but will surely come back one fine day with it too. Anyways, I'm just trying to ask: what helps you? In your deepest, darkest of times, when nothing is working? Forget antidepressants for a second! Besides those medicines, what are some things that make you less depressed? The reason why I'm asking is that I am depressed. I was diagnosed by a professional. Meds I don't like because they end up making me feel a) more depressed b) not at all myself; c) give me other terrible side effects Took therapy, antidepressants and what not for insomnia still don't have the right way to handle. I just wanted new ideas, nevertheless, in hopes of finding something that may actually do something. If you ever have been in depression and insomniac please comment thereby creating a "safe space" Can't we ? For saving one life. Apologies for the long post but sometimes I just have to say it

Now a days work is never ever getting completed, we are working even after the office hours because every project is a p0 project, also managers are autocrative then a tech lead who dont have l0 knowledge but will comment on your timelines and i really doubt that with this culture in it industry i would really want to continue for long run. Are there some better career pivots that should be consider in mid 20s to avoid life long suffering ?

Sunday night blues. Are you really happy? A lot of us are chasing something that can cause a really lonely, unhappy, unsatisfactory life. Share it with all of us. Please. Serious replies only. Let's extend support for each other.

Do all late 20s (28-29 years) men face the same issues mentioned below? 1. Parents getting old- you don't want to see your loved ones getting old 2. Single earning member 3. Staying away from parents sucks as they need us more now. 4. Paying rent 30-40% of total in-hand salary in metro cities. 5. Less friends, even if you have more friends you don't want to express what you are going through. 6. No emergency fund- Agar koi emergency ayi to dosto ko paise mangne padenge. 7. Job switch - As the market is unstable, so you're afraid to switch and get laid off. 8. You want everyone around you to be happy, as your happiness depends on their happiness. 9. Unable to express what you are going through to people around you (wife, parents, friends, relatives etc) 10. Happy Wife Happy Life - You try to do things out of the box (which is beyond your reach) because it makes her happy. 11. What about our happiness? 12. Many more.... I'm going through this now. Sometimes I feel like I should talk to a person (who is anonymous to me and I'm anonymous to him/her) and express everything that is depressing me.

I know it’s a very common question, and impossible to know or answer. But curious how you folks here rationalize the meaning of life. Add your age if that’s okay, for good measure For me: I’m 27, my life’s purpose (or so I think) is to build something that helps a whole lot of people have a better life. And it is to make the people around me - family, friends, strangers happier (the scale of which depends on how successfully I pull this off). Whats yours? Would love to engage on this :)

Hi everyone, just wanted to ask something idk if you get it or not but things are hard on me lately ...i am an it professional with good 2.5 yoe but I feel like i belong in management side of world not here and for that i want to pursue MBA and that's my interest i want to make career switch but lately at my home my marriage discussion has began...i am going to be 26 in july and everyone think i am already little late (yes, that's the reality According to them) i told them about my aspirations they said do it after the wedding...and i am hell confused what should i do because I don't want to be in it (less salary and hectic work in which i have no interest) ...and idk what kinda person i am gonna meet in wedding setup ...even i will be able to pursue it or not ....tell me how you deal with it...any suggestions will be helpful.

you don't want to change your current life with someone, you look to or aspire to. Huh.....what? Assumption: Given the chance to exchange life with anyone in the world. Why would you still choose yourself? Or you will exchange with someone? Who and Why? Interesting thought, right? Please think for a while, introspect wisely. (Personally, I look to and aspire a few but I cannot/won't exchange with anyone. WTF is wrong with me with my miserable life. Trust me, I have a miserable life, enough to have rice daily, and already failed at what I always wanted to be since sixth grade. Now, I am just trying to do what I am good at and struggling with, frustrating on a daily basis.)
