Never needing to work again and actually having energy to do things would probably do the trick.

Just one day without tinnitus would make me happy.
Take care of your ears.
Mine eventually (after years) faded into the background and now it only really bothers me if I'm in a quiet place.
Can't emphasize this enough.
Just live in a loud environment! Oh god I wish I could know silence again. Nothing like going out into nature and you hear a ringing the whole time
Probably a loving partner, and enough therapy to be able to have a healthy relationship. But that's a lot of work, so I mostly try to be happy in my solitude.
I'm a person who enjoys their solitude. I know my partners not the same but I also know there are other people who very much like to stay to themselves. Maybe you can find someone who you can both be in solitude together with.

A friend that both plays the same video games I like so we can play together and also fucks me.
Are we doing this? Be gentle.
Gentle? But babe, I just lost to Promised Consort Radahn 157 times in a row; I need to vent that anger.

If I learned how to prioritize sleep without feeling guilty
I do it like this. The world's a better place for everyone if I'm properly rested. Especially me.

I just want to know that everything is genuinely going to be okay.
In the vastness of an infinite universe you are a speck on a dot that lasts only a moment. It'll be ok.
If I could turn back time.
If I could find a way
I'd take back those words that have hurt you

My daughter to be happy.
Also, for her to manage a single night with solid sleep, so I'm not replying to threads about happiness on Lemmy at 5am. That would also be nice.
Life stability and security. If all of my bills and debts were taken care of, I would be happy. I love my job as a welder and enjoy what I do. I look forward to the new work week on Monday morning.
I would continue working as a welder, even if I didn't have to worry about money and bills.

To get the kids to bed and start up a video game. That's all. That's all it takes for me now a days.

I wish I knew.
Need a good brain storming sesh?
I'm not sure if that will help. I've been what people would call emotionally numb for a while. Most of how I come across as feeling comes from memory of feeling that way.

If it turns out that the Nintendo Switch 2 can dispense coffee.
Jokes aside, I'm already happy! What would make me even happier is getting around to finishing this drawing...soooo many hairs 😂

Financial freedom
"OK, you've finished your first play through. Now go back a handful of decades and don't do the same fuck-ups."
Not having adhd so I could make a better use of time, for family, relaxation, chores, career advancement. So I didn’t have to lean on my wife’s emotional intelligence and knack for planning so much, and so I would be better at maintaining relationships with those who aren’t in my immediate vicinity

- A solid, reliable, trusted, friend group. I've got a handful of people but some folks I know have like a whole crew.
- At least one smart, hot, kind, loving, partner with at least one shared, actionable interest.
- Power. Like, give me the infinity stones and I'll fix the world.
No other crisis at the moment, but you never know when you're going to wake up with double cancer or whatever. I try to appreciate the nice moments.
Ultimate dream? To have my mortgage paid off so I can have a bit more breathing room every month. I'll get there eventually, I'm just impatient 🙂

Dopamine and serotonin.
A stable career path, a loving relationship, and permanent housing.
More concise: Stability.
It's all I ever wanted and seemingly the only thing I can never have even since childhood. I move every 2 years on average and since adulthood that's been from basement apartment to basement apartment and now to a garage with no end in sight... I finally got to the point where I could consider buying a house and then COVID, WFH, and the invesestment parasites all blew up at once and took that away from me... I gave up on the relationship bit years ago.
Well I am happy, but would be happier if the public transit here was good. Because the city would be so much better.
More money would make me less anxious but I have a reasonable lifestyle already (only took a half century and 4 wage earners in the household) and am satisfied with it.
I didnt know i would be saying this today but I hope you get the public transit of your dreams.
Getting to meet in person the close friends I have made online
In the US: Universal healthcare. Having kids and having to think about healthcare even when we're not sick or injured is such a mental drain.
Just enough money to pay off my car, my credit card, and give me 1 year (if that, id probably spend half the time recovering from traveling) to travel and see where I want to go in life.
Edit: funny, now that I'm thinking about it there's that venn diagram joke: Money, time, and Energy. Each stage of your life you get two.
I have no energy, not a lot of money, and plenty of time (except ADHD time blindness so it doesn't do me any fucking good.)
Getting rid of 35kg of fat.
Long term, low intencity depression doesn't make it easy though.
