>Go outside. Seriously. Get some sunlight. Also exercise and socialize. Care for a pet. >The key to happiness is this: you get to decide if you're happy or not. Let's be realistic: this is not fully true, you do not have full control over yourself. Some may need external help and should seek it. But certainly it's at least partially true. Realize that both happiness and sadness are irrational feelings which emerge from our subconscious. Your rational self can influence them to some degree with knowledge and effort. Listen to the advice from the experience of others: go outside, exercise, socialize. Find something you enjoy doing and do it.
