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.
Even if the euphoria wasn't that intense, that would still qualify according to my definition of a positive experience. But if there was no such euphoria at all whatsoever, then that cannot be a positive experience according to my definition. It cannot be a positive feeling either. The same rule applies to dysphoria. As for me having a mental illness, I do not act crazy at all. I am completely cool and calm. I do not have manic states or anything of the sort. So, rather than me being some psychotic, crazy person, perhaps I am just having a load of misconceptions. Remember, I do not have much insight at all and my only insight is my own personal experience which I am convinced of.
