Spring Break HW

I think I have been emotionally healthy the whole spring break. To me being emotionally healthy is just being able to survive and think on your own. I don't think that I feel more emotionally healthy than other times, because no matter what my "emotions" are whether Im happy, mad, sad I am still able to make my own decisions that I feel are best for me. I don't think that "constantly happy" is the same thing as emotional healthy. One being constantly happy may make them feel like they are emotionally healthier but for me i don't think constantly being happy makes my mind work any better. On wikipedia it says that to be emotionally healthy it includes enjoying life. I disagree with that because in life many times things happen and you don't always enjoy life but that doesn't mean you are not emotionally healthy. What makes it wrong to not enjoy life and who gets to decide weather or not someone is emotionally healthy or what it means to be emotionally healthy?

I think that the therapists believe enjoying life means one is emotionally healthy. So then they would probably just look for ways to make you feel like your life is good and you should want to live it. I disagree with this because life isn't always fun and can't always be enjoyed but that is part of life. Existentialist therapist look to try and make their patients feel like their lives are meaningful and have a purpose. To me everyone's life has meaning just because everything has a meaning but just because it has meaning doesn't mean they must want to live. And it shouldn't be considered emotionally unhealthy if one doesn't want to live their life anymore. Either way they are going to die sooner or later so why should they waste there time with something they feel is a waste.
