I think there are some social factors.
I have always thought that true pleasure is never something you can seek out to find, it is something that comes unexpectedly to you.
It seems lately that all I am interested in is controlling pleasure. How can I control feeling good. This may be part of depression, I don't know. The more I *want* to achieve pleasure the more impossible it is to have. Nevertheless, I never remember being like this.
Subtle things have been changing in me over the years. In the past, I was more able to just do stuff and not care - and in the process I recieved happiness.
This just seems impossible now. It is this chronic wanting. It is like I am too focused on the goal that I can't enjoy the journey. I am trying to let go of stuff but its hard.
