Unhappiness is a state of being sad or a state of finding not to feel good about it. There are a thousand and one reasons why people are not happy because we are all different people. However, there are some common reasons that are found in people.

1. Worry: Worry add nor subtract anything from you it just gets you agitated and sad, worry creates inner turmoil which can destroy your mood or your whole day instead of worry, why don’t you relax and think of a solution to that problem.

2. Hold on to the idea of control: many people believe they have the perfect idea for everything, and if it doesn’t turn out that the way they planned, they become sad.

3. You hold grudges: you do not let go of issues and keep the bitterness and anger in you.

4. You hold to the things of the past.

5. You compare yourself to others.

6. You believe everyone should play by your rules.

7. You chose to be happy only when all of your dreams come true.

There are a lot of people who do not find themselves happy with the lives that they are living right now. The modern world is considered to be more nerve-wracking as compared to how people lived in the past. There are some who are so tired of the things that they have to do that they can no longer be content with what they accomplish.

They always feel that the things that they are doing are not enough. People usually get their happiness based on what other people will also think about them. Some people are also happy because they know that they are living a lie. They cannot live up to what they are showing to other people on social media.

A lot of people are unhappy with their lives because they have no time to appreciate what they already have. A lot of people would compare the lives that they are living with the lives that other people are living on social media. People should remember that the things that people post on social media are not exactly what they seem.

People should stop comparing their lives and just focus on how they can improve their own lives. If people started becoming more positive, they would realize that there are so many things that they can do. They will realize that there are a lot of things that they are taking for granted that can surely be improved. The things that determine people’s happiness can make people happy or unhappy.
