You couldn't feel sadness, anger, love, frustration or fear, only happiness? Isn't that weird?

I mean, would it not seem to you a little unhealthy, whether or not you were worried? And what about love?

It would be quite nice to feel this way for a short while - I'm a terrible worrier. But I think it would be dangerous because then presumably you wouldn't be as perceptive to risk.. could perhaps become a bit careless or thoughtless as things would have little consequence regardless of how you behaved. (Ok you might lose your job, partner etc but you are still feeling on top of the world so it doesn't seem so bad). It could in effect bring your whole life crashing down around you.
Is this a hypothetical question or do you know someone like this?

I'm actually a very happy person (my icon says it all). LOL.
At the beginning, I think it would feel absolutely AWESOME to not feel all of the negative emotions. But then, my only emotion (happiness) would get kind of dull... and not mean so much anymore because I always experience it..... it's the same. Nothing has changed. I would also start wondering what sadness felt like... what anger felt like... what love felt like... what frustration or fear felt like.... Emotions are what make us human...

If you could only feel happiness and no other emotions, I guess you wouldn't be worried because wouldn't be able to feel that emotion. If you could, it would be quite worrying

I suppose that actually is possible. If someone has nurological problems. But I think I would be, if I could. I would know something was wrong and that I needed help.

Obviously I wouldn't be worried. You just said I couldn't feel anything but happiness....

No, I would think I'd swallowed an Ecstasy pill.
