Euphoria Definition from Encyclopedia Dictionaries & Glossaries
Euphoria (; from Ancient Greek , "well", and . "to bear") (semantically opposite of dysphoria) is medically recognized as a mental and emotional condition in which a person experiences intense feelings of well-being, elation, happiness, ecstasy, excitement, and joy. Technically, euphoria is an affect, but the term is often colloquially used to define emotion as an intense state of happiness combined with an overwhelming sense of contentment. It has also been defined as an "affective state of exaggerated well-being or elation." The word derives from Greek , "power of enduring easily, fertility".
