Thanks for replying and sharing your post. I’d actually read it a while ago but forgotten how relevant it is to the above. To be clear, I totally buy that if you have crippling depression or even something more mild, fixing that is a top priority. I also have enjoyed recent posts on and think I understand the alignment-based models of getting all your “parts” on board.
Where I get confused and where I think there’s less evidence is that the unblocking can make it such that doing hard stuff is no longer “hard”. Part of what’s difficult here is that I’m struggling to find the right words but I think it’s specifically claims of effortlessness or fun that seem less supported to me.
