&gt;<i>The biological factors are symbiotic with the environmental factors. One does not function in isolation from the other. If your biology is preventing you from enjoying your supposedly &quot;good&quot; life, you don&#x27;t really have a good life at all.</i><p>Agreed. To note I had originally phrased it as an &quot;<i>otherwise</i> fantastic life&quot; but it kind of turned into a semantics argument.<p>&gt;<i>The way to have a life that is actually good is to bring your environment and your biology into balance.</i><p>My position wasn&#x27;t that environmental or emotional techniques are ineffective, just that sometimes they&#x27;re inadequate in face of overwhelming biological factors, necessitating biological intervention as well. But hey—I think we&#x27;re finally in agreement.<p>&gt;<i>Since I learned the way of thinking about it that I&#x27;ve been arguing here, I&#x27;ve been able to take meaningful action ...</i><p>That&#x27;s great. Please don&#x27;t take what I said as an indictment or assault against what works for you, I certainly didn&#x27;t mean it that way.<p>&gt;<i>Anyway, I won&#x27;t be responding further; you&#x27;ve made your point well, I&#x27;ve made mine and I hope my comments have helped you to clarify your own thinking, as yours have mine. Thank you for the discussion, it&#x27;s an important issue that I appreciate people making the effort to engage in.</i><p>Likewise. Have a good one. :)
