Honestly, being drunk. But I quit drinking 9 months ago. So now I don't really know. My boyfriend does but I'm not sure if that's a good thing. I don't want my happiness based on someone else.

Awesome! It really does get easier. I don't even think about drinking anymore and the desire to drink has pretty much vanished.

That's actually a really good question. Reminds me of something a Pastor told me once. He said, educate your purpose. Funny thing is, I wasn't really sure what my "purpose" was. But, I think I kinda understand what he meant, could be wrong, but I think one's purpose isn't something you choose; rather, its something that is a part of you that you can't rid yourself of without tearing apart your character. For example, I love to help people by just hearing them out. I also love to draw/animate things. (still learning the animating part though). If I took away my artsy side and being there for people, a part of me would feel like it wasn't really me.

So, I guess to answer your question... I would say fulfilling my purpose and not feeling suffocated by peoples expectations of me. To be accepted, inspired and loved for what and who I am, and giving the same to others.

What makes you feel alive? Any reason as to why it does?

Mine Is Sugar Lol .

This is a GREAT Question...... I feel alive when I shower , put make up on and dress to the 10's. Doing things to take care of myself makes me feel Alive. I never use to take care of me. The Family , husband, house and Animal's always took first seat. Now I have learned to put myself first... You made me think, this was good. Thank you, and have a happy day ♥♥

Dubito ergo cogito, cogito ergo sum. I find being inquisitive to help on this matter. There are so many mysteries in life but people generally ignore all and prefer to travel and to not ask the question you ask. Or lie themselves that that's what means to be alive. It is good when one can lie him/herself. Want a kick-start on mysteries, look at the double slit light experiment which gives a peek in the mysteries around us and which we ignore.

On another note, there are so many things going wrong on this planet that could fuel anyone's engine not only to make feel alive but alive-and-furious. Think the social injustice in this very country, think the deep ignorance everywhere which kills this planet. Pick what makes you angry most and do something.

During and after a hard gym workout. The endorphins released makes me come alive. I go home sit outside and take in the world. My problem is when the endorphins start to wane and I need a klonipen to make it any further in the day. Hence, I stay at the gym for as long as possible. Just seeing people and not being alone helps make feel like I belong and not just taking up space. It's tough for me to keep up that alive feeling.
