euphoria on SSRIs?

I experienced euphoria or euthymia or "really adequate-feeling" when my Prozac was increased to 40mg. It wasn't hypomania. I was calm, not energized. I wasn't even necessarily "happy," but able to concentrate well, work without despairing, empathize with others, and even feel a little sadness (very different than depression). It was the Best.

After two days it went away.

Sounds like it happens on MAOIs (nardil), too.
I read something by a pdoc saying that it's common on SSRIs, but that it's brief and once it goes away can't be replicated.

Any other experiences out there? (I want it BACK.)
