Its part of a study, yush

After all the depression and anxiety studies (studies based on negative emotion) a few out-of-the-box psychologists decided to study positive emotions; if their goal is to improve a persons life, understanding what makes people happy and why is a good idea, instead of what makes them sad and why, which is more pessimistic in its own.

Currently we tend to just treat depression and anxiety with drugs and make it so they are functional but not happy. If we can understand what causes and stimulates happiness, then  drugs may be less relied on, or, drugs could be changed from the psychologically and emotionally stupefying ones of current day and switched to ones that encourage and stimulate happiness; so instead of zombie people we can have happy people.

:3 I find the advances and new studies really interesting

good decisions and taking on opportunities when they arise makes people happy, I think. The opposite tends to be the cause of the depression/anxiety/whatever. Its a no brainer that entertainment makes people happy and also laugh. Thats why books, movies, tv, and the internet are in existence.


A question comes to mind, is laughter just the sound, or does the physical activity also play a part in what defines laughter?

Thats not what I meant by "why" we are happy or laugh; I meant the chemical reaction taking place, which parts of the brain control it, where and how, and which hormones are involved, as well as how situations are capable of triggering the hormonal release and chemical reactions

smoking salvia makes people laugh a lot. I'd rather live in a world where laughter isn't found in pill form.

Well you wouldnt need it, but for people who HAVE to take antidepressants, would you prefer they take pills that will stupify them or ones that will make them feel more positve about things

From a medical perspective, patients on antidepressants usually are on them long term and they dont really improve their mood much (not that they dont help); if instead of longterm antidepressants, a person could take short term doses of a "happy pill" per say, a pill that will regulate the chemicals in the brain to think more positively, and be more effective in stopping depression, I'd much prefer the happy pill

o.o I've recently been put on antidepressants, and I took myself off of them, because I was allergic, but when the doctor asked me to come back to change to a new one i wouldnt be allergic to, I told him I was done with them because of the effects they had on me, aside from the allergic reaction.

Its a better of the two evils situation
