Doldrums or mood waves

Man is an amazing creature. What does mood depend on? And can it be controlled and regulated?

You don't have any special problems: a well-paid job, a car, an apartment and a lot of nice acquaintances with whom you enjoy socializing. There are plans, thoughts, desires and some goals, but... why, suddenly, seemingly on an even keel... waves in your mood? You're being swept from side to side... and the once pleasant color turns a dirty black. You feel tired and irritable. You want to hit the dishes, burrow into your plaid and only catch the air with the tip of your nose... hear nothing and no one.

Why is that? You're not even tired at work. You are understood, and indeed your opinion is often decisive and has some kind of authority. Why does life change shades to the only one?

A smooth mood and a quiet day, as it was yesterday, as it will be tomorrow and for many weeks to come. You habitually wake up early in the morning, traditionally convincing yourself that when you come back from work you will definitely get home early. Work day... time to go home! Workout, a trip to the store... the line, the groceries, the crowds of gollding people... Today everything has the same color - gray. Look, once again, there's no reason to complain. Yeah, you're right, it could be better. It could be worse too, mind you! Why don't you make yourself happy by buying it? It's just that the thing doesn't have the charge you want anymore.

A day, a week, a month... they seem to be massively similar and predictable. We are not 15 or even 25 to be surprised and learn new things... we have been through a lot, seen and heard even more. And here you are, coming out of the store with packages, suddenly... for no reason... not realizing why... you smile! It gets brighter, and after a while it gets brighter... look at that, people change. Just now they were gray, and now they're handsome. The music on your playlist is more rhythmic and your stride is wider. Life has regained its hues and endless gradient from red to purple. Why? You weren't praised at work or even showered with compliments on your looks. You're still the same today as you have been for the past days and weeks. What happened? Where does the body produce this stimulant from? Is the person a self addict? Mood from withdrawal to high for no reason... is it possible to control this, to manage mood... Life is infinitely interesting! Do not lose interest in yourself.
