What makes you happy?

What makes you happy? That is a question I find asking myself over and over. I find hobbies I enjoy, yet I still find myself depressed on certain days. Seriously I really wonder some days what is wrong with me. Why do I struggle with being happy? I should be grateful for having all things I have, Yet, here I am whining about my life. I think I really know my problem, but it is not fixable.
Extended family can be such jerks.... Yet I still desire to have a relationship with them. That question I do not understand. I find myself putting up with them telling me that I am a failure. Yet I have done more with my own life, then they ever have. Some days I wish I wasn't a christian and could tell me them off. Yet, here I am still being nice.
If you have this problem, what do you do to find happiness outside of your extended family? I would love advice. They seem to drag me down every time I call. I am a christian will not treat them poorly since they do not know Christ. So please give good feedback if you have it. Thanks
