TymbrwulfFixed your spelling errors, monk. He said cyclothymia, not psychothymia(but psychothymia definitely sounds cooler).
When I was studying during my Psychiatry rotation I spent some time with depressed and bipolar patients. Their lows are not like a low you and I can imagine, and their highs make them feel like they're the kings of the world.
You can have depression, bipolar, but unfortunately there is no disease that makes you feel happy all the time

colt45says...After having wallowed around in depression for a bit, if there is a hell, that is certainly a reasonable means of implementing it.
robbersdog49Stephen Fry is so wonderfully expressive. His use of language is exquisite and really helps make sense of this difficult issue.

No, I found hell and it was being on hallucinogens during a depressive state whilst watching Pink Floyd's The Wall. I literally tore my house apart looking for any type of religious artifact so that I could beg the universe to save my tortured existence from existence itself. Can you imagine being in pure physical and existential misery, listening to your ceiling tell you that when you die it will be far, far worse. Now THAT is fucked up. On the other side of the coin, coming down from that trip into a manic state was the single greatest feeling I've ever experienced.
