concept revisited

Ok time to catch back up. After reading various text on depression and happyness i felt that i should become more specific with my concept than just dealing with antidepressants. (for this class at least) I'm attempting still to get through Prozac Nation and i can't decide whether i want to stop listening or feel bad for her. The book nearly made me feel depressed while listening to her hopeless views on life. This inspired me to be a little more lighthearted. I also want to comment on other possible remedies people use for even temporary happiness. What makes us happy? I have often found that it's the small things that keep me going as i always try to find enough to fuel my spirit.
