I would say my horse is best thing to ever happen to me but other things must also be included on list such as i should say God is best thing to happen to me, my licence and car, my dog that is dead now, my boyfriend, and maybe few other things also perhaps my real family .not ones i was raised with as i dont think they are my real family but other ones ive met in spirit who may be my real family.
Coffee and cigarettes. Trying to give up the smokes though which will be a long process atm. Tried adult coloring books of late was hoping theyād bring me joy was very disappointed in them tbh. Might have to try Lego.

Besides pharmcological rewards cough stimulants cough, I find that learning about niche or esoteric areas of interest, or collecting narrowly-marketed pruducts, is fun. It also helps me take my mind off my illness.
besides drinking soda or overdosing on medicationā¦?
usually when I finally complete a poem and share it on the internet, I get a very good feeling.

I like to help people, most times something small, like getting things down from the supermarket shelves, putting heavy items into their cars for them, giving them a ride home if needed (elderly folks Iām talking) running errands if Iām going the same way, opening the doors, it really makes me feel good to help.
I consume herbal mint candy and milk tea a lot.
Xanax and Soma. Doesnāt count as drugs if you have a prescription!
It is then a prescription drugs.

I build stuff. Used to be furniture and knick knacks. But now Iām working on my biggest project yet. I bought a house for 5 grand off of a rehab company after the owner died that was started on, but never finished. All of the demolition work was done and new sewer, roof and siding was done, but inside was bare studs. So far I have installed a new electrical panel, plumbing, and I am working on the framing that needs corrected. I used to be a heating and air tech before my sz got bad, so I have skills as my wife puts it. Lol I donāt know what my next project will be, but I will NEVER do something this big again. If anyone is interested on seeing my progress so far I will post pics.

Do dishes, the laundry, mop, vacuum, change sheets, take a shower, clean the bathroom, dust, vacuum the furniture, etc.
How seldom I want to feel good!!!
Yes @knifester Iād like it if you posted progress pics of your house.
Thanks to @jukebox for this thread. I needed to see what others do to feel good. I donāt do anything to feel good anymore, nothing makes me feel good. Iām empty. I can tell you what used to make me feel good and I used to enjoy: petting the cats, watching the fishes, going to the aquarium, brushing my hair or having someone else do it, clean sheets on the bed, crafting, piano and oboe playing, gardening, hiking, running, biking, kayaking, reading.

Coffee and cigarettes, but I suppose they come under the drugs category!
