>Look, it's all a competition. To have money. To have happiness. So much so that people get upset at the idea they might be unhappy. "No Way! Not me! I'm way happy!"

you might decide for yourself which competition to enter / trophies to strive for.


>This is because for someone reason its wrong to be sad, by today's ultra-competitive social norms.

STRIVING for sadness seems even more wrong - not strictly/unreflectively following social norms might be more prudent

>This is VERY unhealthy. People competiting to be happy, going as far as asserting they are happy just so they aren't judged poorly by society even when they are not means they don't process sadness, and ultimately have no frame of reference for what happiness is.

very true

>This leads to clinical depression. The number of people on anti-depressants out there is no fluke.

but this is overexplaining to me. Pills are to cheap and the definition of clinical depression might be helped along by sales hopes ;-)

>So, of course, I'm not perfect.

Do you really fear that anybody (yourself included) would think that ?
