me oxytocin, that feel-good "I've got everything I need" chemistry? And that's all it was. So that's my hypothesis, is that it wasn't the physical manipulation or the relaxing, although that should have helped because it pretty much helps with everything.

So you need to dismantle it. And if you're just fans, then no hard feelings if you didn't know. I

will accept "I didn't know that was going to be a problem." That would be perfectly acceptable. I just can't have it exist, so you need to get rid of it. Got that? All right, so I didn't even want to talk about it, but stay away from that thing. All right. Here's a study from Gilmore Health News. Pursuing happiness as a goal often fails to make people happier. Here's why I think that makes sense…
