      Too well described, it felt like a constant veil of sluggishness. With the hormones, it felt like the veil was removed and I for the first time could truly feel happy, not a sort of apparent one for the outer world or myself, but a deeper, real one, feeling all warm and fuzzy and calm from inside.
