Is it a generally happy experience?

(not including the resolution of it. "hungry" or "tired" would be a no here.)

possible Q's:
- is the state associated with a need to fulfill a routine biological requirement (i.e. eating, drinking, sleeping, going to the bathroom...)
- is the state associated with a strong emotion (anger, despair, frustration, grief)
- is the state usually triggered by a physical stimulus (pain, itching, being hot/cold)

i'm thinking the first one cause i don't think most people experience super strong emotions every 12 hours, nor pain. could potentially also be something like discomfort or confusion

So some thoughts..
-Pain
-Frustration
-Anger
-Boredom
-Focus
-Not sure we've entirely ruled out sleeping, dreaming, or daydreaming, although the answers to 8 and 10 make me doubt it

Possible Q: Is it a state that often occurs suddenly, as a result of a physical sensation or an event that was observed?

Also just being awake/conscious in general is a possible answer

Maybe a better question would be to ask if it's a generally negative state. If we get a no on that then I really like "consciousness" as an answer
