Another question prompted this question but for the longest time, maybe my entire life I have experienced very little joy.

I would not add “what brings you happiness” as that seems even more allusive. Some of us have had hurtful painful lives, some not, but I think joy lies in the ability to “play” or to give oneself what one really desires? But what do you do when you don’t even know what would bring you joy? Because your life has been about survival. Or did you realise you had cut off joy and how did you bring it back into your life?
