no, prayers wont help I have tried that in ohh so many ways, for ohh so many things, and well now I absolutely thing prayers make no difference at all, you are the only one that can make your life happy, do you best, enjoy peoples company, dont lie, cheat, steal or be a complete idiot, or even a little one, and find someone to give you really good sex, then you will be happy

the one thing u must learn to do is forgive anyone who has been responsible for whatever that has caused u pain in the past. prayers definitely help if u are a religios person(dont pray for a good day tmr, but thank the lord for the good day today-trust me it helps). if are not a very religios person, try to keep urself occupied with what u love most(any sport, hobby or books) and tryto think less about the past. if u are not able to do that, destroyor keep out of sight anything that might serve as a remind. go to a movie, concentrate on ur present work-if nothing works force urself to hum a tune everyday. after a while u ll reliaze u are living inthe present and doing pretty well too.
hope this helped:)

Sure prayers will help; they certainly won't hurt. What you have to remember is that happiness is a state of mind. It doesn't come from the external fulfillment, per se, but from an internal peace.
Though you have experienced sadness in your life, you have to remember and focus on all of the blessings that you do still have, no matter how small or big.
In life, we go through many seasons; sometimes we are happy sometimes we are sad, and sometimes we are angry. As long as you look at the positive things in your life and as long are you make a pact with yourself to keep forging forward, you will be okay. Do things to help others and do things that are true to who you are and you will have a happy life. Best wishes!

You wrote "how to forget past sad things". I don't think you need to forget the past - what you need to do is to learn to accept the past, however sad it was. The sad past does exist - but it exists in the past. Now is your chance to live in the present and plan for the future.
Prayers can help - it does help to talk to G-d. Also, prayers help you focus on what you need and want in your life - you can learn from prayers what is really important in your life - what will make you happy. Praying can be like a conversation between you and
G-d in which G-d is helping, listening to your most inner thoughts and desires, and is there for you, and you are learning to express and feel and be close to G-d who helps those who help themselves.
Good luck!

Mind over matter. Or if it doesn't matter, don't mind. I think happiness comes from within. There are people living in terrible conditions all around the world who seem to be happy. So why can't we be happy? Accept the fact that you cannot change the past. Accept the fact that others cannot control your feelings. You are in control of how you respond to people and situations. Praying would help. So would focusing on the good things in your life rather than the bad things in your life. But, just know that life is like a roller coaster ride: there are ups and downs, twists and turns. So buckle up, look forward, hang on and enjoy your ride!

One cannot forget the past, but one sure could accept the past. whatever events/happenings of the past/present which you feel is sad or bad is so only because you feel so.
You are not willing to accept that such a thing happened especially to you. Once you accept the things you call as sad, you are at peace with yourself and inturn happy with life.
It is quite difficult, but then could be achieved over time through practice.

Happy life lies in both physical and mental health. It is important to be both mentally and physically healthy to become happy. Keeping yourself happy means you think the happiest moments of your life rather the other. Keep in touch with the people you expect to be friendly and can share your joy. Prayer makes a person mentally pure. This has got a very good effect on mind. But should be done sincerely and regularly.

First of all..........Yes prayers do help as long as it is true from your heart! Talk to the Lord your God seek him for guidance,What ever has happened in your past is just that your past! Believe me I understand where you are coming from,it seems that happiness is just for other people ,but this is not true.It is for you to. but you must allow your self it. Here let me put this way with out God you cant truly be happy,Understand this.. then look inside your self at these sad things.write them down and why did they make you feel that,what caused it actually? get to the root of the problem it is only then that you can see your self in true light.act as if you were examine some one else honestly is the only way to find out.I'm going to refer you scripture in the bible for happiness ok. (Key to happiness,[ Psalm 100:3] promised happiness [Psalms 97:11] strength in happiness [Nehemiah 8:10] Hearts desire[ Psalm 37:4] and remember to self examine in order to see things how they really are and what you can do OK.

Cliche but true. Time heals...for some events it takes years of time to heal...but it does heal, always. So take comfort in knowing that. And while you are waiting for time to heal; do all the things you know you should be doing. Learning, rewarding work, reaching out in kindness to others, being good to yourself. Creating positive memories in the present. And be sure to keep those things out of your life that you know from experience are harmful to you. And when the time for healing is complete for you; and since you have been working positively on the present....then you will find peace and contentment or happiness.

Yeah, it's useless without prayers!

Just tell your parents/elders. that you want to go out will not contact anyone just forget everything. enjoy only. than come back start again forgetting everything and do at least for 15 min breathing exsercise daily then take bath and pray only one god you think will help you.KEEP FAITH ONLY ON HIM. SO THINK THIS AS GOD LETTER AND START AGAIN!!!!!
