What are the opposite words for moderation?
Antonyms for the word "moderation" include excess, immoderation, and extremity. Excess implies an excessive or uncontrolled amount or degree of something. Immoderation refers to the lack of restraint or excessiveness in behavior or action. Extremity suggests being at the extreme end of a spectrum or a situation beyond what is reasonable or balance. In contrast, moderation implies balance, self-control, and avoidance of extremes.
