How can anyone else define for you what is happiness? This is an internal emotional state, so only you can define it for yourself. This isn’t a matter of self-esteem, but self-understanding. Do you feel good, have a positive emotional state, etc, other things that would be described objectively as happy? If yes, then I would say you are genuinely happy. Happiness does not mean perfection. There may still be things in your life that you want to change and that is fine. You should try to define what doubts you are having. If you are wondering if someone else would be happy in your circumstances, you should not walk down that path as no one can judge another until they stand in his shoes, which is not possible. Everyone is different. Hatzlacha!
