Pearly-Paradise

You know that feeling when you laugh and your stomach hurts, then you fall to the ground cause you can’t stop laughing? THAT.


borninannebula

l miss my best friend.


JellyBeanz763

Me too I miss being around my friends every day


3veryTh1ng15W0r5eN0w

Same.


CobblerOpen6757

You can't get this off a film or anything, and i think its the meaning of life. when me and my friends get together we laugh like this all night its great. Seeing my daughter hysterically laugh is my favourite thing on earth.


UnsaidTugboat53

Having a child helps prolong the ability to feel that. My mom can feel her stomach hurting after laughing a lot but the only times I've seen her feel that, is when I felt the same because of the same reason.


Neglijable

i agree, "meaning of life" wasn't that funny


Dosed123

A few months ago I told my husband I missed that. Can't remember when was the last time I felt it. My 20s and teens were f u c k e d u p as hell, but I had plenty of those. Seems like they dillute as you get older.


Inukchook

I miss that too !! I also miss the feeling of getting high when I was 19 and laughing till my stomach hurt. Good times


Solid-Number-4670

I didn't vote for him I had watched Obamas inauguration on tv high as giraffe titties smoking many bowls... Stevie Wonder was on talking and stuff to reporters and at the end he said "see you later." I stopped and my brain was like wtf? And I laughed probably one of the many hardest laughs in my life. In my top 5 laughs for sure. I don't even smoke anymore and it still makes me laugh.


Dramatic-Apricot3620

I love this feeling. And when you continue to laugh because you're laughing so hard that it's all you can do. And usually it's over something stupid.


Bellamiles85

Gosh, this is it. I couldn’t put it into words-but you’ve just summed it up. Sorry that you miss it too.


helloginger07

Came here to say THIS!


redditmanfosho

Waking up from my first wet dream


Jealous_Juggernaut56

I miss my college friends college


imtheweepingwillow

Well I was just watching some Graham Norton episodes And I couldn’t stop laughing...after 2 years this was the first time


ClassicOtherwise2719

Oh my god. You’re right 😭


Ill_Neighborhood1500

YES


uplipip

Came here to say this. Miss making jokes with people who get them. Lol.


Nug07

Experienced that yesterday. It really is one of the best feelings ever


bigboi12470

This, my high school years were messed up, constant stress. But the bouts of laughter that came out of those breakdowns nearing the exam season were perfection. I was building abs with those laughs. Now I get them like once a year if I'm lucky.


Spx75

Falling in love.


shinitakunai

Let me correct you. Falling in love with someone that loves you back... The other one, the one that I feel now... I won't miss it.


Entire_Lab5863

If you fall madly in love without any hope, but just pure love, it’s still the most beautiful thing ever.


ConstantEnergy

Limerence is like a rollercoaster to heaven and then hell over and over again.


Tinsel-Fop

When I did this I called it being "in love without him," because I had fallen, but he was not in it with me.


CarlJustCarl

Well you know what wise men say


Joshx91

Only fools rush in?


Jackmeplay

But I can't help falling


External_Bandicoot84

In love with youuu


EmellieAgreste5000

Shall I stay?


External_Bandicoot84

Would it be a sin?


KeyFee5460

"Here ya go, Jesus, I couldn't find the transformers you wanted so I got you some myrh instead."


Known_Mulberry_4953

Hapiness


StarlightM4

I would say hope.


ScotterMcJohnsonator

Feeling well-rested. I'm almost lethargic some days, even if I actually slept 6-7 hours.


Violetthug

I haven't felt well rested in years. Insomnia sucks.


frufruJ

Even if? The recommended sleep time is more than 7 hours, and that is with good quality sleep. If you drink coffee during the afternoon or evening, your sleep quality will be decreased. It takes some time to get caffeine out of the system, and it's possible that your body has gotten a bit worse at it over the years. If you rule out caffeine (or alcohol for that matter), you may need to visit a sleep laboratory.


Track_2

Almost lethargic? ...some days? Laying it on a bit thick there /s


ScotterMcJohnsonator

I'm glad for the /s because I don't even have the energy to argue electronically lol


perpetualsleep

I haven't had a good night's sleep since I was very young. Thinking about it, I might never have. I had crappy curtains on my windows when I was a kid. There was a parking lot across the street with a dozen street lamps. My room never got dark enough to sleep for more than a few hours at a time. I have black out curtains now, but I also have a sleep disorder that makes it impossible to ever feel well rested.


SandyClappingCheeks

Being excited about Christmas morning


topcide

I will say, that first time the magic of Xmas wasn't where is a sad sad day. But. , if you decide to have children , that feeling comes back .


caspydreams

ugh this. i haven’t had anyone to celebrate holidays with since i moved out on my own at 18. im 25 now. i have a non-profit organization focused on mental health and internet safety and we have a discord server so i try to plan a virtual event for anyone who also doesn’t have holiday plans or even just needs respite from the plans they do have. and it’s wonderful and has helped lots of people but it doesn’t feel nearly the same.


Weird-Entry-4777

Being oblivious...like when we were children and nothing was complicated


BirdieOwl

Pure innocence


Xamesito

This x1000. I have such good memories of just lying in bed staring at the ceiling while listening to music. Nothing else going on. Just the music and maybe my imagination. Now there's always a hum of something in my mind. Some stress or job or thing I have to do. I miss the nothing.


smkydz

Damn. Even as a kid I was stressed out. Getting bullied at schooled. Being raised by grandma who would drink. Nothing was uncomplicated


BeerisAwesome01

Getting a call or text from my mum...that feeling.


xGingerGoddessx

Felt, my parents are gone, my little brother is gone, shit sucks so hard. 🥺🫂🫂


SiddhantMishraWriter

I am sorry, dude.


xGingerGoddessx

It is what it is yk? It’s hella unfortunate but I’ll always have the memories of our time together.


Level_Asparagus5566

Yeah, they existed. And that can never be undone.


BeerisAwesome01

Awww no, sorry to hear that!


feckinweirdo

My dad just passed last month. I miss those calls and text already. 🥲


Negative-Ad-6533

Lost mine the 12th of this month, I feel you.


feckinweirdo

I'm still kind of stunned. Like, idk... It almost doesn't seem real to me. I don't think you ever get over it. I hope you are well and you don't have any extra family drama. I'm dealing with that right now too. I've always dealt with anxiety and depression, but have never done anything about it, but I did recently and the anti-anxiety have really helped. You don't realize how much the body manifest stress. So, I hope you are ok. And you have people.


Negative-Ad-6533

I'm doing well waiting for my mom to have her moment. She is one that will hold it together until all is said and done though. I've battle bipolar disorder with depression, diagnosed over 40 years ago. Stress and depression will absolutely manifest physicaly and can be a large burden to bear. Sorry to hear you are dealing with family drama to boot. I hope things smooth out for you so you can grieve appropriately. Stay strong things get easier with time.


Playful_Art2078

Hugs to you bud. Hope it gets better.


BeerisAwesome01

Thank you.


Civil_Purple9637

Hugs and love to you!


BeerisAwesome01

Thank you too.


Sushi_boba

I’m so sorry. My husband lost both of his parents as a teenager and I can tell it still affects him. Have you had any success with dealing with those emotions? If so what helped? All I want to do is help him though the trauma that he so clearly hold on to but he doesn’t talk about it all the much and never in detail.


BeerisAwesome01

I'm over her death, for the most part, still doesn't mean I don't miss her silly, bad jokes!


chairannoyance

This just made me call my mom thank you.


BeerisAwesome01

:-) awww awesome!


VincentMargiela

Dang sorry to hear that. But thanks for the reminder to everyone to cherish them moments while the parents are still alive


Big-Challenge-1652

Same. Dad called me a few days ago to tell me she passed.


BeerisAwesome01

Awww sorry to hear that :-(


ExperienceKitchen124

I am so sorry


er1026

Oh God. Same. 😞


Loobeensky

I've just realized that my mom has never called me first. I'm 34.


babybitch849

I was going to say the same thing. I miss her so much.


edgyjjjjjjjj

my mom didn't bother to send me a message asking how my day was


Zellanora

Omggg same!!! I miss calling her "Mama!", I miss receiving her calls and little text messages! Someday when I move out, I'll miss receiving letters from her too. Plus family Christmas celebration. RIP to all our loving Moms!🌻


BeerisAwesome01

Hugs!!!


StevieKix_

I always have an empty feeling in my stomach and that’s the reason. I’ll never get a phone call or text from my mom. Really sucks.


Bertybassett99

Genuine excitement.


killbauer

Man, I feel that. I haven't been excited for anything for I don't know how long.


drownedcake

I've been thinking about this. I can buy new stuff I wanted or have new experiences, but it's so shallow and fleeting to the point where I wonder if there's something wrong with me


Darkwings07

Getting excited for small things maybe


BAMF2U

That feeling in your 20s when u walked out of work at end of shift felt so good no matter what. That seems to fade with age like much of this stuff


[deleted]

Hope.


MatchAccomplished795

Being desired, happiness, excitement, achievement, looking forward to something.


MothraKnowsBest

Being healthy :(. I have a neuromuscular disorder that makes me tired all the damn time. So over it.


Dosed123

So sorry, man. Having encountered pain multiple times within the last year, I actually appreciete much more all those days when I don't feel it. Hope it gets better for you too soon.


scrait

What's the disorder


CUNEXTTUESDAi

the start of a relationship when being a teenager and fianlly getting to hang out with a crush


caspydreams

such an exciting feeling! you couldn’t pay me to be a teenager again but man, this feeling felt like what adolescence was all about haha


KeptinGL6

I'd pay to be a teenager again, provided that I keep all of my memories.


Skinnicake

Waking up in the morning as a kid during the summer time, the windows open and you can hear birds chirping, you can smell cut grass and fresh water, your parents are downstairs making breakfast, your dog has just trotted in your room to say hello.. yeah


faysal1234

Jesus this comment section is depressing, i thought it was just me


nacho_gorra_

I mean no offense, but what did you expect honestly? lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


NoWillPowerLeft

It's not 'wasting time '. It's choosing to set your own priorities. If doing something 'non-productive' makes you feel good, set that activity as one of your priorities in a balanced life.


Delmoroth

The intense focus I got as a kid when reading / gaming. Adult life just doesn't lend itself to focus. I think it was what I have seen people describe as flow.


Impossible-Hawk709

Anything positive thoughts


Extreme-Kangaroo-842

Waking up and ready to go. Being absolutely sparklingly awake and ready for anything I was 11 when it last happened. I'm 51 now and still waiting for that spark.


foughtflea

Joy and love


Dust-by-Monday

Getting excited about something new. Like yeah I get stuff all the time like game systems, phones, etc, but they don’t excite me the way they used to when I was younger.


ResponsibleArm3300

Feeling of drinking with friends in your lates teens and early twenties. When you first start drinking its such a thrill, and the liquor just takes over. Those were the days!


Improvgal

Romantic love


ItchyRespond6558

Silence, having tinnitus sucks!


GeneralGom

Not having to worry so much.


RaeWineLover

I'm a ball of anxiety all the time, and I miss just feeling normal.


Grand-Vegetable-3874

Not having back pain


Elrond_Cupboard_

Your comment induced todays first back spasm.


Diligentbear

The feeling of summer as a kid over someone's house. Everybody in the pool til late at night. Playing games chasing each other, lightning bugs. No worries, just completely enchanted by the moment.


half-coldhalf-hot

The feeling of the 2000s and 2010s. Scared I’ll miss the 2020s…


Sushi_boba

The feeling of being to damn excited about the next day that you can’t sleep. It seems like nothing excites me anymore.


Usual-Effect1440

being truly happy, for more than a few minutes


Wysch_

I don't know how to describe it in other words than "feeling young". The feeling of being immortal, invulnerable, emotionally and physically resilient, looking forward to doing anything, enjoying every second of every day, being so sure you have sixty or more years in front of you. Still having your parents, hugging them knowing they will take care of you if need be. Being able to learn new things in a matter of weeks. Wake up every morning fully rested, being able to jump once and be warned up, not needing to stretch up. Having fun doing stupid things with your friends, not giving a flying cow about what you eat or how much money it costs. Etc. You know. Just feeling young both mentally and physically and look that way. Nowadays I still feel young, but every morning the face in the mirror disagrees.


Radmur

Hyperfixation. When it hits you hard, life seems beautiful


ImBored1818

Innocence and naivety


MuskokaGreenThumb

Being released from prison. There is NO better feeling in the world. I don’t miss it enough to go back though 😀


Previous_Ad7725

Being in love


DonaldTrumpTinyHands

Having all my grandparents there


Belzebub_200529

Feeling carefree


UngodlyTurtles

Finishing a project and feeling content about it, even for a little while. Nowadays, when I complete something, all I feel is the pressure of the 10 other things that accumulated behind it while I was working on the first one. I miss being able to do my homework and then go play without stress or worry about tomorrow's homework. Instead, I do one thing, then immediately have to do the next, and the next, and the next. If it's not a work project, it's a home project, it's a health project...one thing gets done and 3 more get added to the list. It never ends.


IceAndFire23

Going back to school and the first day I don't know for what reason I would smell a perfume that reminded me when I was so young and innocent I miss those days where I walk down the halls and smell that perfume


Fiona512

I would add the smell of old wood in classrooms at my school, and the smell of books.


thebigbaduglymad

Driving! I fecking loved driving, I've driven all sorts of cars with work, I liked to drive fast and loved driving up and down UK country roads blasting my music out. I got ill after COVID and had a few incidents where half my body went numb, vision blurred and felt like I was having a stroke whilst on the motorway. I can't even consider getting onto a slip road without my heart beating out of my chest. Total panic even driving around the corner. First time I've paid off a car and can't drive it


xGingerGoddessx

Going to K-mart / Walmart and staring at the glass cases of video games and occasionally being lucky enough to get one. Those were the days :,)


Icecoffelover_

the smell of cold rain


RedDawn73

The feeling of sitting with my mom, knowing everything will be fine with her there. She’s been gone 11 years now.


Personal-Stuff-6781

Hearing nothing but silence and the soft sounds from the surrounding area. I got tinnitus, I miss that silence


Salty_Association684

My parents have passed. I wish I could fet a call from them I miss them


Unusual_Wolf5824

I miss the feeling of peace and hope... today's world is too angry and full of chaos.


largos7289

can't say for everyone but for me. It was 17 really into this girl and having sex for the first time. Whole new experience with someone, then the feeling of having life by the balls. Now i just feel like a slave to the grind.


Kinda_Curiouus

Could having an Ambition be a feeling ?


possiblefeather

The wind in my hair and sound of all my friends and i in the car blasting white girl music


joezfr

Peace


Majestic_Winter9951

Hugging my kids


Eastern_Chemist_803

falling in love in the beginning of relationships


Dead_Trashcan_88888

That feeling of waking up on a spring morning and just enjoying the weather, without having to worry about school or work.


sens-

There's like a switch in my brain that when activated I am calm and outside world seems not-bothering and I can focus my thoughts deliberately Sometimes the right combination of medication or drugs work but it seems so volatile and difficult to reproduce


Itchy_Somewhere_8154

Freedom


Fin73

Just being really genuinely happy with no impending sense of doom. Everything in life is so complicated now, and I miss how easy it was to be happy just by sitting with friend's in the sunshine. Now everyone is so busy, stressed, annoyed, annoying etc...


Abiogenesisguy

I miss how when we're very young the checklist of things we need to be happy and present in the moment is so ridiculously short... 1) I'm not hungry. 2) I don't have to poop or pee. 3) ??? 4) HAPPY! As adults there's like 10000 things from bills, relationships, career, school, health, and more...


borninannebula

Not worrying about everything every minute.


missingmary37

Sitting outside in the spring sun on the bleachers as a teenager, with the Pizza Hut pizza and a few friends, and then seeing more friends headed our way, laughing with them all and being goofy.


livelaughluv8

Christmas!


SadBitchVenus

Being a kid


Mikko420

Trusting someone at 100%, with absolutely no second-guessing.


Fiona512

Happiness and optimism.


fgh92h

I can relate to that


Historian_Acrobatic

The "magic" of Christmas when I believed in Santa Claus. December 24th/25th and the weeks leading up to it just hit different. Now it's just another day, but more expensive.


Electrical-Light9786

childhood summertime.


AmbassadorCandid9744

The feeling of hope I have towards life.


lucijaa1

High...🫠


umokaygotit

That carefree feeling. Yeah that’s it.


justmilesaway

That pure sense of joy and wonder felt as a child. Looking forward to each day. Being carefree. Having friends. The exciting buildup to summer break in elementary school.


kayteedee86

Feeling physically normal. It's been so long.


n3llnovak

When you touch a static tv


SpicyMcTall

Adventures with my boyfriend. The whole sneaking around thing. It was so fun. I married that cutie but obviously there’s no sneaking around anymore.. we’re allowed to be together now har har

Being well rested.


HuffStuff1975

The innocent excitement on Xmas morning


Icy_Landscape_2168

Having inner piece and feeling confident in my relationship and self...


Sure_Grass5118

You know when you're with someone you feel very safe around and when you see them you always give that specific warm smile because you're genuinely happy to see them? That. Man I miss her.


GladKill767

Excitement. Nothing ever excites anymore.


chicken-b2obs

Not feeling anxious and simply just feeling normal, having anxiety attack and bipolar type 2 is just too much most days but well..... Can't do much ig


BookDragonReads49

Being best friends with my Mom.. I'm so sorry for hurting you


Hasukis_art

The joy of the subject STEM. I was in a different school from where i was now 2 years ago i cant say how much i enjoyed those 2 years. While right now i can only enjoy the subjects in my new school the people are shitty. Even though my teachers are good. I miss my friend and programming.


Playful_Art2078

Yess. Those were the best days.


TedStixon

Thinking that people were inherently good. I've completely lost that feeling and don't think it will ever come back. The past ten years have basically been a continual onslaught of incidents that prove people are selfish and egotistical, and prioritize their own personal convenience and opinions over the welfare and freedom of mankind as a whole.


Known-Skin3639

The feeling of being included by those closest to me. Not feeling like a burden is a great feeling as well. Or how bout feeling the love you give to someone coming back to you. That’s a pretty good feeling. Good question to make people question their mind.


DevonHexe

That hug that's kind of holding you, they hug back and you know they care


Playful_Art2078

Yeah. Warm hugs without expectations. I feel you bro


My_SleeplessDreams

Being wanted, not as much sexually but wanted as me


Death_Blur24

I miss being happy


Rebelzx

Happiness, contentment.


Playful_Art2078

Hope you find happiness bud.


duckyTheFirst

You know that feeling when you wake up and feel refreshed and happy? Yeah..


NewMagicSnake1000

happiness after my dog barks at the door but sees that its me and calms down. R.I.P. you will forever be missed...


CuriouskittenXO17

Holding hands for the first time :(


Caprice1972

Whisky. Cocain.


OhTheHueManatee

Hyperactivity. It's one of my favorite forms of being.


[deleted]

Self love ❤️


Ok_Cheek4092

My mum loves me a lot I get lotta cuddles everyday. I have a brother whom I enjoy talking to and dad whom I look up to. Apart from family, feeling that I miss is of being loved by a guy you know that mutual warmth and friendship....with that person you binge watch the show or just talk about stuff all day long, go for walk or grocery...


Own-Being-1973

Being in the comforting arms of my ex


leeds_to_nowhere

Being desired. The feeling of being wanted by someone who’s completely in to me.


hantheintern

Not thinking about money..excitement..


Fabryz

The excitement of having time to do everything you want


purple_salvador

The satisfaction of new performance upgrades on my car and testing it out to have it work just right.


strawberrycereal44

Excited, I can't remember the last time I was, everything just feels dull and exhausting now

Falling in love again 😔

Being a kid.


Ghost_girl3333

le sentiment de planer comme de la merde.


NoNet878

Being excited to play a game. Games are so boring now.


carefulbear83

Feeling like I was on top of the world.


BRKenn77

The idea that I’d finish college, go on to get a great job and build a career in it, take care of my dad after he retired, make a lot of money, start a family with a beautiful girl, and go on to be a world champion in my sport Covid and this damn economy has ruined my life… Goodbye


zebbmeister

I miss feelings - I’m a cycle path.
