I wish I felt I could achieve this sort of idealized "high on life" but my basis for comparison (hypomania) is so skewed that it seems an absurd idea. I think a lot of my substance use has been about seeking that same high artificially, which at its best still comes nowhere near the hypomanic experience.
Maybe once I've been on meds awhile I'll be able to experience things this way? Still trying to enjoy what I can of this existence in the meantime.
