Hey, Riyad! Glad you dropped by! It's not that I disagree with the larger point you're making. It's that I'm not certain quite why you outlined it in the way you did. (Actually, probably it's just that you wrote it without thinking too hard about it, which is totally how I wrote my most-known posts, so I completely understand.) If your primary issue is that people will take easy alternatives to happiness if it means avoiding more difficult but more satisfying approaches, then write an article about that specifically rather than shoehorning it in as a topic, because that's a very complicated issue that requires some breathing room of its own. As it happens, your article sounds more like: "If the thing that makes you happy hurts you, then do something else to be happy!" Well, yeah, but that doesn't really provide a novel perspective on the issue, or offer a potential solution. It doesn't even really explore in-depth what "unhealthiness" truly means. Obesity is one of the simplest forms of unhealthiness; there are more subtly damaging things that I'd love to read about. I didn't think your whole article was about drug users; that was just the one part of your article that stood out to be as particularly wrongheaded. The rest of it didn't strike me as being interesting enough to warrant comment, if you don't mind my saying so. It's a run-of-the-mill commentary on people being unhappy who ought to be happy, problem's hard to solve, society enables unhappiness, people won't you stop being so fat.
