Is it normal to be scared of being happy?
Depends.It depends
Yes, it can be normal to feel uneasy or even scared when things are going well. Sometimes happiness can make you feel vulnerable, or you may worry it won’t last.
You might be bracing for disappointment, feeling unfamiliar with things going well, or worrying that enjoying the moment will somehow jinx it. Lots of people have some version of this, especially after a rough stretch; it doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful or incapable of being happy.
You don’t have to force yourself to feel cheerful. Try noticing the good moment without demanding that it last forever. If fear of happiness regularly keeps you from enjoying your life or is causing real distress, talking it through with someone you trust or a therapist may help.
