Just say, 'I'm in a good mood'. Even if you say 'I feel great!', people will still think you are talking about your physical condition unless context suggests otherwise.

And then… A conversation.

A: How are you?

B: I am fine. Thank you.

How about this “fine”, is it about someone’s physical condition?

Can B say as below?

B: I feel fine.

B: I am good.

B: I am great.

B: so so

B: I am ok.

B: I am not good.

B: I am ( a little) bad.

B: I don't feel good /

A: How are you?
