A person with a mood disorder has a more difficult time tolerating negative interpersonal and intrapersonal experiences and this often leads to negative moods. The same holds true with positive interpersonal and intrapersonal experiences. People with mood disorders tend to take things to the extreme. Extremes are exhausting. Chronic, extreme emotional experiences stress out the body. Feeling things deeply isn’t just a metaphor. It wears the body down. If this describes you or someone you know, I highly recommend seeking help.
