people like being around people that are "lower" than them to make themselves feel better and more Superior. So now they probably feel un-needed to comfort you, and now that your life is back to where theirs is, they are jealous. When they shoot you down say "i dont even care okay" and explain to them and ask them why they are trying to make you feel depressed again and why they cant just be happy for you. after all, that IS what friends are for!

Depends on what made you so happy... If your friends are shooting it down so easily, maybe whats making you happy is something that may not be good for you and you just cant see that! Look at the situation, and if you and your friends were in eachothers shoes, how would YOU feel about it. I dont think true friends would shoot down something that makes you so happy if it wasnt bad for you.

They didn't hate seeing you depressed. They liked seeing you depressed. It made them feel better about themselves. Just enjoy whatever goodness has come to you and don't let them bring you down. True friends would not shoot down something that makes you happy.

I used to be super depressed and then I simply got over it all. It will take your friends some time to understand and get used to it. People in general hate change. Give it some time and if they are still not understanding/supportive then find new friends. You need positivity in your life right now. Take care of #1: you! Good luck!

Ignore them completely.
I've had this happen to me many times before.
Once you ignore their comments and remain happy they either get over their jealousy or you will know in the end who your true friends are.
If they have a problem that you are happy, they are not your real friends and need a serious wake up call!

The best thing for you to do would be to just talk to them. if they are you r friend tell them you dont mean to hurt their feelings but this is how you feel. as friends they should understand. if you try to just show them that what they say doesnt matter to you anymore they may misunderstand. people can see things differently. Just talk to them and tell them how you feel.

Stop talking to them. They just want to see you depressed when you are happy or not happy. They like the drama they get and have to make themselves feel better by making you feel bad

GIRL LET ME TELL YOU..... If you so called friends want to down anyting that you like or care about or even makes you happy then they are not your friend and you dont need them in your life. Life is too short for dumb *** people to get you down.

It really is not about showing your friends anything. It's about really knowing what you want, having the willingness to go for what you want and the maturity to accept that sometimes what we want is not always what is best. But in the final analysis, I say"Don't worry, just be happy", 'cause life is short and it is your life to live as you please.
