Tell me/two ideas uncountable?
how you use and what you think yourself with/without money make people happy and unhappy.
In this case ideas are two, but these are uncountable, so make?or makes? which is right?
Thank you!

Hi Yurikazusa,
Let me try to edit your sentence before looking at your query:
"What you think [of] yourself with or without money make(s) you happy and unhappy." (I removed your "how to use" because it appears to be redundant in the sentence.)
You used "or" which expresses the meaning of considering yourself with money only OR considering yourself without money BUT not both at the same time. "What you think of yourself with money" is one thought (singular); "What you think of yourself without money" is another thought (singular). Hence, "makes" should be used here.
*"or" is used to express alternatives where you choose one of two choices.

Perhaps you meant: the amount of value you place on wealth will determine how happy you are

I don't really understand. I think you should try to write the actual english sentence and someone can correct it for you
