All the religions I've heard of are really starting to depress me, and even atheism and agnostism are kind of depressing.
Is anyone on here truly happy? What do you practice?
I think I should go find some kittens.

I'm happy. I'm being baptized in 4 days in the LDS church(Mormon)...
Of course their movies are sad....but only to me...maybe it's my emo side showing again lol!(always happens in the fall/winter)
But yeah! I love it!! I'm always happy when I'm with them(and sad when I'm not) and I usually hang out with someone from the church once or twice a week not counting church....
Like this week...I went to general conference today, tomorrow after college I have a short lesson to finish up the commandments, my baptism interview, then I have a lesson with the missionaries at home later in the night....then I'll probably hang out with my friend, helping her friend finish moving into his new apartment...then thursday I have institution(where we learn indepth things about the bible...besides just the story "God wanted Jonah to go to *a town*, Jonah said no, God had a whale swallow Jonah" we will be learning all the details about it... and then Saturday I'm going to a Young Single Adults activity(a place for single young adults incase you didn't get it LOL!...a lot of people marry a girl(or guy) they met at the activities...)

Maybe you joined that particular Religion not because of your belief! Maybe you joined because of something else...Think about it!
Religion will only be meaningfull if you are being honest with yourself and seeking inner peace to comfort you! They all have that in all religions....but the crunch of the matter comes down to you as a person.
To become one or not...that is the question that you need to honestly answer yourself!
God Bless!

Kittens will help. Just make sure you don't grow up to be that old creepy person with kittens.
Religion definitely helps me. It has always gotten me more focused in life.
I hope you find peace soon. I think we all go through a phase where things simply aren't satisfying and they get us down. If it gets too bad, be sure to talk to someone about it.

The realities of life ARE depressing. You need someone or something that can not only give you hope but something or someone that can really deliver on that hope and I know of only ONE. What religions have you heard of?

I'm happy. I practice Wicca!
I just get depressed when Christians come up to me and tell me I'm going to burn in Hell. It is fun making fun of the really annoying ones that continually try and convert you though!

Yes, religion depresses me because of the wedge it drives between people...

I'm happy.
I'm an Atheist.
I try not to think of myself as an Atheist, I just don't believe in god. I live my life, everyday, trying to stay positive and help others out. =) What's depressing about that?
