How happy are you? 1-10

[Atras]

On a scale of 1-10, how happy are you in general?

[Marm]

1 - writing a f***ing 5,000 word essay.

[Puffin]

7. I have a few different things on my mind right now, but I'm pretty happy.

[Mancon]

9.

[Marm]

^9.. Wtf did you just get married or something? (If you're married, then this reply automatically turns into "Wtf did you just get divorced or something?")

[Atras]

Haha remember happy in general, not at this specific moment.

[HeavySleeper]

I chose 6. I'm not even sure if it's accurate though. I have some worries about my future that can get me down at times and my current situation can be quite stressful, but overall I have a good life and don't have much to complain about. So in general, I would say I'm quite happy.

[khh]

It would be good to have a bit more information about the scale, I find. Like how happy is a 10? "Forever in a blissful state"? And how unhappy is 1? "Life sucks", or "Please get me out of this living hell"? And where on the scale would the "average person" be?

[Atras]

Its pretty much well known that 1 usually represents the worst and 10 represents the best on any 1-10 scale.

[Zhaylin]

I'm a 5. I'm almost always a 5, lol. I almost never reach as high as 8 but I've been known to slip somewhat easily into 0 (2 being most common for the low end though). On any given day, I usually fluctuate between 4-6.

[ThePreserver]

I chose 8. I have an anxiety disorder, but often I'm anxious about good things, too. I'm alive, I live in a good place, I don't have much outstanding debt, I'm doing well in school. I'm optimistic, too. Right now I'm probably a 4, but overall I'd say 7 or 8.

[Geodae]

I've been a nine for the past few months, but I think I usually hover around 8. I'm pretty consistently in the 7-9 range. Dream Views probably bumped me from an 8.5 to a 9 though! And the fact that my college's term still hasn't started. Interesting that nobody chose 10... I guess everybody always thinks their life can get better.

[OldNutter]

I'm a 4 I guess... Although I'm acting like a 10.

[Solarflare]

i fluctuate from 3-8 mostly, but i picked 7.

[khh]

Its pretty much well known that 1 usually represents the worst and 10 represents the best on any 1-10 scale. Without more carefully defining what constitutes "the worst" and what constitutes "the best", people will choose arbitrary values and the whole thing pretty much becomes meaningless as a gauge of Dreamview's overall happiness. Judging from current replies, you'd think that 35 % of us had been given an early admittance to heaven.

[IAmCoder]

I am the one that picked 10. Although it is actually 11. Lucidity FTW.

9/10 for me. Just found out I was captain on my football team and overall things are going great. Plus every five or six days now I am able to lucid so I'm happy about that

[Geodae]

[Darkmatters]

Happiness is such a vague term... Is the thread referring to contentment or joy? I consider them two entirely different things. Most of the time I'd say my contentment is around an 8 or even 9 - even when things aren't going well for me. I have a very philosophical way of looking at things, and I accept that what I can't change I can't change, and I refuse to let things I have no control over make me depressed. But I'm generally not bubbling over with joy or giggling uncontrollably. So on the joy scale I'd have to say more like a 4.

I'm a 5. I'm almost always a 5, lol. I almost never reach as high as 8 but I've been known to slip somewhat easily into 0 (2 being most common for the low end though). On any given day, I usually fluctuate between 4-6. A massage from me would shoot you to a 9.

[Seroquel]

I fluctuate between -10 and 0. Oh and this thread is fucking stupid.

[Sornaensis]

4 and also 8.

[Geodae]

I fluctuate between -10 and 0. Oh and this thread is fucking stupid. Hahaha, Seroquel, keepin' it real! It's just a thread for people to emote. Nothing wrong with that, I think.

[Erii]

Usually between 1-4.
