I often describe to patients that proportionate emotions serve a biological purpose. Just like how our BP and temperature have a normal range, so does emotion. Did you get a bodily injury and experience some inflammation? It's supposed to happen! That's called your immune response. And that medications are designed to treat pathology---bonafide disorders. BP meds treat hypertension. Antibiotics treat things like sepsis. You don't take stuff like that just because you don't like it when your HR goes up when you exercise....
Plus, if we had stuff that was so wonderful with minimal risk, we'd give it. But we don't. No point in trying to shove a square peg into a round hole. Try as you might.
I actually make an interesting analogy with plants. For a plant to thrive, they all have their individual needs. But definitely a degree of sunlight, water, nutrients from the soil, even wind. If you don't provide those, they don't thrive. You don't medicate the plant first unless there is identifiable pathology. Interesting thing, most plants need wind. The wind creates micro-traumas which stimulates strengthening of their stem. I've tried growing certain plants indoors, not realizing this. And eventually they cannot hold up their weight, they snap and die. We too have a natural habitat we thrive best in, and it's not a habitat with zero distress. My understanding is we are at our best in a physically active state, a diet high in variety, almost in a fasting like diet as that is what years upon years of evolution has favored? Meh. Just my thoughts.
