January 2018-August 2018

Was in a marching band in program. We were preparing to go to another state to do a show or something. It was like a Rocky (as in the boxing movie) theme. Life just seemed perfect at the time. Made friends. Made memories. If only the program could reach that high point again.

When I got sober.

From May 14th, 2017 to September 17th, 2020.

That was a period of my life where I could say that I was actually happy. I worked my way out of a very serious bout of depression. Started working on changing my life for the better, and I had amazing support on all these positive changes. Someone that made me smile and actually laugh every day, gave me a good attitude that I shared with others. That was a period of my life where I felt good about myself and actually had plans for the future to work towards.

It's taking me a long time to get back to that point, but I miss it every day.

(I'm a stickler for dates.)

The last half of 2016 to June 2017. For the first time, I had made a group of friends at school who I also felt comfortable around. I also loved the house we were renting. I was happy both at school and home.

College grad.
I can't think of anything else.

Nah June 22nd, 2021 1:24 PM

hmm...surprisingly, 2020.
yeah a lot happened that year to say the least. so much bad in my personal life too, unrelated to world events; everything i knew was flipped on its head. i've grown exponentially in a short amount of time...met entire groups of wonderful people who have enriched my life and bonded all over again with "old" (but still wonderful) people who i'm proud to call my friends. shared laughter that year, shared tears, but most of all i was able to grab my independence with force. i'm the luckiest person i know.

1996, the year I was born in.... from that day on greatness came to mankind. A blessing upon Earth as the greatest anti-supermarket crusader of all time spawned in some middle of nowhere village in some middle of nowhere country thats far below sea level how the hell have we not sunk yet.

Any time I get a new dog is the best point in my life. 🖤🖤

Probably my Freshman year of high school. There were so many good things going for me at that point, I was in pretty good shape, had a lot of fun and new experiences, had a really big friend group and was enjoying all of my sports and music... and then it all slowly got taken away from me by genetic health problems. Then it just felt like nothing was worth doing anymore for a very long time.

Second best time of my life is probably when I got out of my last relationship in October 2018 since she preyed on that depression for the four years we were together. It wasn't until I got out of that situation that I finally felt like my life was my own again instead of just existing for someone else's benefit. Everything since then has just been trending upwards.

I’d have to say 2011 to 2012. My mental disorders hadn’t developed yet and I had a nice group of friends. Video games were still a relatively new hobby for me. Everything I played was new and exciting.

When I got my first in-field job at my career.

Alexi's_Blue_Sky June 30th, 2021 8:34 AM

April 2019, when I met the love of my life <3 I was in the worst depression I had ever experienced in my life, but when I met him, he gave me a reason to live again. He gave me my smile and the colors of my life back.

The day when Boards were cancelled, and yet I got my dream subjects: Science and Computers! :D

Megan July 9th, 2021 8:30 PM

Hopefully I haven't reached that point, yet. Considering how my life went so far, that would be really sad. <_<

Awww. :(
Don't worry, good things will come eventually! :D

colours August 14th, 2021 3:32 PM

like Megan, i... don't think i've really reached the point of my life where i'd be so elated that it'd be memorable. i've had good moments, but none were particularly outstanding. saddens me really, but what can you do. :c

I have a few times, but what always comes out on top was late 2006-early fall 2007. There's a lot of reasons to choose that time, one being that late 2006 was my senior season of marching band. We had a fantastic season. One that would surprise me beyond my wildest imagination in the end. Very shortly thereafter my grandparents spoiled me by buying me a bassoon, my dream instrument.

But one thing that really makes me say that time is... it was the point before I felt like my childhood came to an abrupt end. I had no health issues. I saw a normal life for a future. I had unabashed hope. It's hard to imagine ever having felt that way now.

A second point might be late 2008. This was after the point where my childhood ended, so to speak, so it's complicated, very complicated - in fact, if we're being honest, I had a real suicidal point during this time, which makes me mentioning it sound odd, but there is a reason. It's because I had a social life like I'd never had and have never have had since. I came out to my first friend, my best friend, and she became my first girlfriend in this time. I loved her so much.

Speaking of complicated, the next period I think about is late summer 2015-2016. Prior to late summer 2015, 2015 was a terrible, extremely painful year. It'd be hard to explain this one without an incredibly long backstory. But what was to happen in late 2015 felt like fiction. There's no way I could make a short explanation for this. So I won't even try. I'll just say that I was in a very low place when my interest in music was rekindled and then I gained the will to start taking lessons, and my teacher, a very amazing person, completely turned my mind around and convinced me I needed to go back to college. And I did.

Now, oddly enough, I think that 2020 into 2021 will be another time I look back on fondly. It's has a similar feel to the above time, in that I was in an extremely low place and things somehow came together to get me out of it. But when I say a "low place", I mean terrible chronic pain while working an active job, and seeing no way out of that job. My mental health had bottomed back out, like that point in late 2008. 2020 led to me getting a diagnosis for what is really going on and medication to treat it (the two years before this doctors thought it was something else, and it turns out that was only a symptom of something bigger, and it's no wonder that nothing was helping). Plus, I hate to say it, but the pandemic provided me relief from my job. My student loans got delayed, and I was able to leave the job. But I hate to have to say that. The pandemic is awful. Far too many people lost.
