Actually thread purpose is more like question "How do you act WHEN you are sad". I wasn't implying that all of you are on edge of suicide. And I am glad that you are not. I love happy people ! They radiate good warm energy around them !

you have to be careful about being too happy. kinda like that old phrase "more than happy", i'd be more than happy to do that for you. that sounds like a dangerous mental condition to me.

Happines, sadness, fear, anger, love, hatred... Basic human emotions. As human beings, all of us experienced that emotions now and then. I doubt you could deny that. So can my assumption that all of us experienced unpleasant feeling of sadness once in a while be taken as a generalization ?
