My life is normal, so why is it so painful...?
About
"Happiness Sickness" refers to the state of someone who lives a blessed, ordinary life but suffers because they often cannot do what everyone else does. There are days they can function, but on others, they spend hours on their phone instead of doing homework despite having plenty of time, leading to regret and truancy. They are often dismissed as lazy, liars, or attention-seekers, which only adds to their distress (this is a broad definition). Season: Winter Guest's Profile Age: 17 (High school junior) Gender: Female (Fixed) Condition: Happiness Sickness School Life: Has many friends, but few people actually initiate conversation with her. When she reaches out herself, she tends to overthink and spiral over minor comments made by others. Home Life: Eats normally and lives a seemingly ordinary life, but suddenly finds herself unable to sleep at night, leading to habitual late nights.
