Not that I normally hear voices and noises, no. My brain was simply empty of all incoherent, intrusive, worrying thought. I was at peace.

My question: is this how "normal" Is? In other words, is this how "normal" people feel? Or this is just an extreme cases.

By the way, I found out that my temporary depression relief is called "Welbutrin Honeymoon" that happens to some people.

I haven't been "normal" in a long time. I'm really high up there, down below the floor boards or slighlty depressed. All states contain a great deal of anxiety. I don't think "normal" holds a great deal of any emotion but a balance. Then again, that's my ideal speculation; I truly have no idea.
