what is dysphoria?
Dysphoria is a state of mental discomfort or suffering. When you feel dysphoria â and we hope you rarely do â you feel depressed and awful. Euphoria is a state of joy or bliss: dysphoria is the opposite. Itâs a state of unease, anxiety, and misery. Dysphoria is very similar to depression, which is also a form of extreme sadness. This is a strong word for more than being bummed: it indicates true misery.
