I've been really really high in mood in the past - I've been manic and so now whenever I feel happy it feels so dull by comparison. I used to do something really dull like drink some orange squash with water and that was enough to make me feel good, now I do what I love the most and it feels dull by comparision.
So let me see if I understand. You used to have really high moods, but the meds you are taking have kept them under control. Now you feel that without the highs, everything seems dull. Is that it?
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
