What exactly is the protocol for good days?

Are “good days” days when you wake up and think,
“I don’t hate myself as much as I did yesterday”?

Or are “good days” days that go by and
you can’t remember because
by some miracle,
something bad didn’t happen after you woke up?

Are “good days” days when you can breathe
without feeling like
a noose is around your neck?

Is there a protocol?
Am I just looking into everything too much?
Why can't I stop?
