Hi, I’m Dr. Sandip Roy, a medical doctor and a psychology writer who started The Happiness Blog.

My writings have been featured on:
Lifehack, Wequip, Happify, The Positive Psychology People, Growing With Gratitude, PositivePsychology.com, The Positive Times, The Till.

I am strongly committed to exploring ways to improve mental well-being, cope with difficult times and emotions, and sustain personal growth.
My mission is to help people live more meaningful and satisfying lives.
My posts offer valuable insights and practical strategies based on real science to:
- boost happiness and life satisfaction,
- learn important skills to balance life and success, and
- find practical solutions to pressing mental health issues.
I also deep dive into Stoicism, a 2300-year-old philosophy that teaches us how to live well. It’s a pleasant surprise that many of its principles find support in the modern science of positive psychology.
Alongside my writing career, I am a practicing medical doctor (general physician), board-certified by the National Medical Commission, India.
