Padma is most likely experiencing a manic episode.
Manic episodes are prolonged moments of extreme happiness or irritability (one or the other) which can last for days or weeks. The person experiencing a manic episode will feel elated, euphoric, as if they could do anything in the world. It is important to get a check-up because manic episodes might hint at bipolar disorder.
