Serotonin; it's a naturally occurring chemical in the brain that amongst other things regulates mood; lack of it can cause or at least contribute to depression.
seratonin
endorphins i think. They are what is released when you eat chocolate or have sex for example
seratonin?..amphetamine?.
Prozak ;)
Its called ceratonin and is transported around your body by neuro resceptors and such like.

Endorphins are a short burst of happiness but they don't last!
alcohol
All drugs mimic natural chemicals. Seratonin and dopamine are the two that are the most famous in beginner's neuropsychology.

PS, about ecstacy- just because someone mentioned it. Ecstasy has three drugs in it that all force the relase of absolutely all your happy chemicals in the brain, and even in the spine.
The extreme high feels great to the more adventrous people out there- except when you crash,
it's becuse neither your brain nor your spine have any happy chemicals left AT ALL!

It takes two to three days to replace them, if your body is healthy. This accounts for the EXTREME LOW after the drug is taken.

And who knows if the body can repeatedly push out an emergency reload of endorphins like that? When will ti break down and leave you constantly depressed?

So, yeah, natural highs are best. Any situation in which you can get the happy chemicals going is best. Exercise helps. Healthy diet. Oh, is that annoying or what?

And one more thing: Use your facial muscles to smile, and trick your brain into thinking your happy. It's called the facial feedback hypothesis, and believe me, this works!!
endorphins are released to make you happy.
One of them is dopamine. Well, it keeps you motivated so you're not sitting around on your bum feeling sorry for yourself which only really selfish people do. I mean, if you're out thinking about other people and helping others, what time do you have to worry about yourself? This is why I believe the best cure to depression is involvement in activities and work, but only if it involves working with others. Working alone can lend too much time to think about one's self.

Also, having a healthy thyroid helps. Keeping a good diet helps too, because your brain actually needs those vitamins and minerals to function properly.
Serotonin
Dopamine
Serotonin and Dopamine are two chemicals in the brain that have to do with emotional responses.
It's called seratonin, or lots of alcoholic refreshments!
good food
