In Czech we say healthy spirit resides in healthy body. I rather like that saying. Of course in extreme cases you can feel happy when totally paralyzed and still get PhDs and all... but that is so uncommon they make a feel good docus about such people. And to wreck your body kind "intentionally" in name of being "happy" or "stable"? (it's not "vanity" that should come before "sanity". Imho "sanity" is knowing physical symptoms mean something is wrong with your body and should not be dismissed). You will end up fat and miserable in general. And when after years your joints and back hurts from carrying around the extra weight... try telling yourself you are "happy".
