Braking problem

My breaks work fine most times.However, at times the car seems to slide as the breaks don't hold. This started happening all of a sudden and I changed my pad and bled the brakes and it is still happening.Any ideas

The car does not skid. The break pedal is "high" and does not go all the way down.

Does the brake pedal get really hard to push when this happens?
