100% Happiness. Satisfaction guaranteed, or you’ll be forcibly injected with tge happiness drug 🫠
(I just thought of antidepressants = happiness drug and this random thought popped up lmao)
That’s not what they mean by “happiness” when they say Finland is the happiest country in the world. It’s more about overall life satisfaction and I can assure you that this isn’t achieveable by drugs alone.
Imagine if antidepressants = happinesses. Lol
Read their name again dude. They don’t give you anything, they prevent shit.
Making a new country is much harder than that. You have to get a plurality of existing countries to say you’re a country before you can join the club. See also: Taiwan.
The hard part would be finding a place to make your country that would be legally recognised as not part of another country’s territory. Maybe construct an artificial island in the ocean, or a floating island made of essentially large boats, or settle in Antarctica and hope when the treaty goes up for renewal you can get recognised?
I don’t think the people who do the happiness statistic could see past the “forcibly inject” part.
Its called the Geneva Suggestions.
Only the first one is forced.
After that, you’re begging for it.
There’s been no war here and no terraforming event. The environment is stable. It’s the Pax. The G-23 Paxilon Hydrochlorate that we added to the air processors. It was supposed to calm the population, weed out aggression. Well, it works. The people here stopped fighting. And then they stopped everything else. They stopped going to work, they stopped breeding, talking, eating. There’s 30 million people here, and they all just let themselves die.
We had to force it on the grumpy old men, but they are happily sedated now.
Take away the booze and I wonder how and where these rates would tank, lol. The material comfort is definitely nice, and a good chunk of happy living though.
How do you know Finland isn’t already doing that?
Apparently antidepressants don’t make you happy. They just make you feel nothing instead of depressed.
Please, do not repeat this, because it’s terrible advice that causes people that otherwise could benefit greatly from antidepressants to avoid them completely. Don’t spread misinformation.
It’s true that antidepressants don’t make you happy, but they don’t categorically make you feel nothing. Every person works differently, and a drug that for some regulates emotion and prevents stress in others suppresses emotional extremes completely. For me, Lexapro made me feel nothing. For my mother, it made her feel normal again. I have a combination of drugs that make me feel normal, but for my wife, might make her feel awful. Antidepressants don’t “make you feel nothing.” Some might have that effect, but it’s the job of a psychiatrist to find the right blend for each person. It took a few tries to find mine. If your antidepressants make you feel nothing, you need different antidepressants.
