The one book that answers all questions of your life is the Bhagavad Gita from India.

Our happiness is not related to Just one generation but the karmas of our ancestors. Read the Bhagavad Gita

Trust me, I know how much it sucks. I've been through it too. But I'm telling you, it really does get better.
Right now, what youre going through feel like your whole world. The days can seem endless, and when you're going through a tough time, it can feel like it's never going to stop. But it won't always be this way. As you get older, life opens up in ways you can't even imagine yet.
One day you'll find your people—the ones who understand you, accept you for who you are, and make life fun. You'll have experiences, adventures, and memories that make all of this feel so far away. You'll either look back on this moment and be proud of how far you've come, or you'll be so busy enjoying your life that you won't even think about it anymore.
Try not to put too much pressure on yourself about what you should or shouldn't be doing right now. You're exactly where you're meant to be. Every challenge you face is shaping you into the person you're becoming. Some lessons are hard, and some days are tougher than others, but they all help build your strength, character, and resilience.
It takes time, and I know that's probably not what you want to hear when you're in the middle of it. But I promise you, there is so much more waiting for you on the other side of this. Life gets bigger, better, and brighter.
And speaking from experience, I'm so grateful I stuck around long enough to see it.

@avh-n1i Says:
This 'loneliness' study is nonsense to me. Loneliness is a subjective state of mind and only applies to certain types of personalities and characters. This must be so because I am an example of someone who at 80 years old with just about adequate wealth to survive, has no intimate friends or close relationships and a not-so-satisfying marriage yet in no way can I or will I ever consider my self unhappy or lonely.
I can go on an on but I will wrap it all up by saying that the reason I am that way is because I have managed to develop a one on one relationship with Almighty God who created all of us and the Universe out of nothing and I firmly believe He is fully invested on a minute-by-minute basis in the success of our individual lives (yours and mine included) and of the world at large. I recommend that way of life to everybody. Say the Lord's Prayer at least twice a day every day without fail for the rest of your life and you will be given the power to overcome any and everything.
@OussamaYtube Says:
You won't be fully happy, and you know that one day you would die and nothing
So if you wanna really be happy, you've got to know as well why you were created. What's the meaning of life, and what will happen in the hereafter (and the real life there that never ends)
All the answers and more you will get in Islam and Quran ❤

I think happiness is the sense of being valued and being of use, and helping others.
@faruarchive Says:
There no happiness in something that doesn't last longer, since you will get bored of it or just get used to it, but you find true happiness in Jesus only. Try it and prove me wrong if I am lying.

Dear Veritasium Team
Thank you for being real, for being personal, for tackling human subjects, for your outstanding, human-centered research. Thank you for staying away from AI as much as possible (or sensible).
Keep the good stuff coming.

Quantifying happiness and trying to turn it into an empirical science seems to me a total waste of time. Unless one is studying mental disorders.

People have changed a lot since those studies were conducted. Before, superficial people ended up alone, etc. Now, society is driven by superficiality; it's preferable to be alone and healthy while waiting for meaningful relationships, rather than seeking to connect with superficial society.

i'll be happy as long as i have the stuff i want (stable financially, having the people i love around me, etc.) and still be humble in the end

Money dont buy happiness, but it can give us freedom and that freedom will make us happy.

@BDK1311 Says:
For me, it boils down to two things: first, maintaining healthy routines like regular exercise and eating whole foods; second, living in the moment, regardless of the situation, including the bad ones.
If you’d like to read, here is a little bit of context:
I am a 29-year-old male. I worked hard throughout my early 20s and, luckily, earned enough to achieve what most people dream of or worry about: a fully paid-off house, a car, and starting a family.
However, I then experienced a full-blown panic attack—which I initially mistook for a heart attack—and developed a health anxiety disorder that lasted for about a year. Today, I can say I am fully recovered. But as the saying goes, you can only see things clearly after surviving the storm.
Because of this, I now believe that only those two things lead to a happier life. Happiness isn’t something we look for; it already exists in the present moment. I realized this during my healing journey because overcoming anxiety requires a practice that is completely counter-intuitive. While having more money, getting a promotion, or achieving a dream is nice, you shouldn't wait for those things to happen just to be happy. You don't need to wait for a certain 'X' to start living. That used to be my mindset, but I don't want to think that way anymore. It puts your body, mind, and soul into survival mode and makes you miserable.

The luck factor also counts... when people have easy lives without putting the usual effort that others do, they become hopeful, positive and happy

such high quality as always, you are making good videos. thanks
@Spazza42 Says:
“Money doesn’t buy happiness”. Somewhat true, but it does liberate you from a large causer of stress. Small amounts of stress are good but we know a stressful experience knocks you down, multiple stressful experiences in quick succession stop you getting back up.
@atiajulia4028 Says:
I am an introvert. I love being alone and I am happy with seeing my friends or family once a week. If it's more, I get very stressed. Soooo....thanks for this video, I will just acknowledge I will die sooner then extroverts.
@W.RR.W Says:
People confuse happiness and peace. Inner peace more specifically. You are setting the bar too low if all you want is happiness. Inner peace in hierarchical terms is of higher priority. Aim a bit higher.
Accept your situation in life. Assimilate as close as possible the expierance and then with forthrightness improve your situation and those around you. That's the road to inner peace.

@mariusd5913 Says:
I think these studies make assumptions on cause, you can say married men are healthier, but you can also say women are more willing to marry healthy men. Married men have more money, but women are more likely to want to marry wealthy men. People who walk 15min a day live longer, but sick people cannot walk much. I think these studies are more sociological garbage.

Concerning what makes you happy, I finally found it. Praying to Allah and Islam. Nothing else could make you happier. Nothing even comes close. It is the reason I live and breath. I pray for you all to find it and you will surely find your heart, mind and soul. Al hamdu lellah.
