I personally do not believe in positive and negative experiences and, thus, I do not believe in any real good and bad value that can come about in our lives independent of those euphoric and dysphoric states I've defined.

You're thinking in extremes. You also need help.
There are good feelings that aren't intense euphoria. And not all feelings of euphoria are good. Sadistic euphoria is bad. So is thinking options on a computer screen has ultimate meaning to your life and is trying to tell you something. That is psychosis experienced as apophenia. Get help. You have many of the signs of a manic episode (euphoria, seeing patterns in everything and thinking it has some sort of ultimate meaning to your life (apophenia) and pressured speech). Get help.
I didn't give you a gigantic response for you to respond with a couple of sentences after quoting my huge post and completely failing to use hide tags. Use hide tags when quoting a gigantic amount. And I am not going to waste my energy on you if you're going to give such a comparatively tiny response.
Although, meh, I guess my awesome (and enlightened) post is there for other people to read if they're interested It's not just for you. In fact you're probably not openminded enough or ready enough to learn anything from me. And hell, why am I even questioning this? I already decided you're having a manic episode. If I were a theist I'd be praying for you to call a doctor right now. Although anyone who needs help is unlikely to have the self-awareness required to ask for help... so you're more likely to receive help when you worsen and someone else calls for help for you. And if you're sensible enough to call for help then the doctors will think you don't need it. Unfortunately.
