I don’t have a great episodic memory so I can’t be as detailed as one might hope about the trajectory from 2010, but I think it worked fine! I no longer do much active mood maintenance. I’m on an SSRI again as of last year, but that’s about energy levels and “anxiety” (I don’t experience anxiety-the-emotion that often, but I seem to maybe have the underlying correlate of anxiety disorders that just pops out differently). I am sometimes irritated, frustrated, bored, exasperated, etc., but seldom sad and often happy..
Just stumbled upon this post curtesy of it being placed highly in the Wellbeing tag, and I’m curious how this has held up a decade later.
