I really can't say that I am unhappy with the way that things have been going for me lately. Am I happy? No, not really. More like I have grown used to what to expect in my every day life, grown accustomed to it. I've become content with the fact that I have not been what the typical person would consider truly "happy" for the past several years.
Content or Only Fooling Myself?

yep that is why i am going to counseling to learn to quit beating myself up, the negative thoughts were what got me into the terrible depression pit i fell in to. i thought i was doing better this week but still find myself paralyzed by doing regular daily chores. i work best under crisis situations.
content is a good thing. being happy is just a temporary state, no one is happy all the time, i am hoping to become content with my life again, sounds like you are content in your living situation but not content in being with yourself
