we chase the feeling of happiness more so the chemicals our Brain realises to Push us thru another day of the same struggle, it's not even for love or happiness we drag are selfies towards, no its just because we're afraid of the melancholy mind, for it show's the lie of happiness for happiness is just an animalistic drive handed down from are fourfather's so that we can make another generation of fools to Wonder the world endlessly looking for a reason to keep chasing that lie (sorry for bad English it's not my first languages)

The issue with sensory pleasure is that strong craving for it causes unrest even if you are able to secure it later. And after securing it you need more and variations of it causing more unrest. It's never ending just like you said. But avoiding unpleasant can also hurt in the same way, so our lives just become a simple scale of trying to escape unpleasant by chasing fleeting pleasant to keep us distracted. And we end up on a hamster wheel like everyone around us becoming aggressive at the thought of standing still.

I don't think "happiness" is the right definition for the feeling you're trying to achieve.

Those two diagrams are interesting to look at but it's hard to think of it and the other way than just chemicals serotonin and dopamine just so you don't die because there was a studie were they took away The dopamine receptors from Lab rats and the rats died of hunger

Yes, it must have been sad not being able to feel the typical pleasure while eating (or probably anyway), but what was the point?
