I have a problem where sometimes I am really high on life and everything seems easy to me. I am happy about everything in life, motivated about job..call friends go out and stuff. Then somedays I am the oppossite..i start to find everything wrong in my life and I really REALLY worry on what other people think of me. I dont like this as when i am 'high on life' i am more of a better person more confident and motivated about life. Why does this happen ? how can i stay 'high on life' forever ?

Dear Anonymous,Why on earth would you want to be 'high on life' all of the time? We are amazing beings,but I doubt if we would appreciate the vast pleasures in life if we didnot also suffer pain. Each of us get the opportunity to savor and suffer. If you are describing abrupt mood swings with no apparrent precipitative cause, and extreme euphria (just a little TOO high on feeling good) You may have a mood disorder. At any rate, your moods will change constantly,as do your experiences. It is the DEGREE that is significant.
