How to Fight Moods

In case you do experience a mood (i.e. an inexplicable emotional state), this is what you need to know:

– There is a reason for what you are feeling.

– You can’t see this reason because you don’t think you can afford to know what causes these feelings.

– The feelings you don’t want to acknowledge will keep erupting in the form of moods, trying to get recognized.

– The longer you avoid this recognition, the more likely you are to get really sad or really sick.

  1. Ah, and sometimes what we take as a mood is not a mood at all, but something else. For instance, as I am aging, my hormonal levels are depleting. Even the juice in the Mirena device is depleting, which means I feel differently, and sometimes there is a grating sensation and my state of mind is clear but my memories are too sharp. The slight underlying pain of an almost constant pre-menstrual condition evokes memories of painful situations from the past. This is not totally bad in that I feel less hormonally intoxicated and much more cognitively alert. I’m really sharp. But the low level pain itself (both emotional and physical) is not desirable.
