What Causes Extreme Euphoria?
Hi. ok. so ,,,, this has been intermittently wracking my brain for a little while. No periods of depression or being upset for no reason at all, no problems sleeping, but I have really happy periods - seriously - extremely happy. Some people treat me as though I should be upset or abruptly act negatively for no reason because of some trials that I had to get through,, but,,,,, I don t see the point,,, again,,, just happy, content or extremely happy,, no meds. Is there a diagnosis for this?

Hi,
The issue sounds to be related to hyperfunctioning of pleasure center in the brain with neurologic circuit disturbances through excess of serotonin and other amines.
Here I would like to separate out the euphoria and extreme happiness as 2 very distinct entities and should be evaluated thoroughly with clinical judgment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
