If you had the choice to be the dumbest person on earth with all the pleasure in the world or be someone who is depressed and highly intelligent, which would you choose? I'm quite sure you would choose to be the person with all the pleasure in the world because of the fact that your emotional health comes 1st above some stupid intelligence.

No, I would not. And being obssessed with "pleasure" and feeling "god-like" for being a hedonist.... that is not being emotionally healthy.
Dumb people make dumb decisions. Dumb decisions backfire. When in mess, you are not happy.

Finally, I hate depression and struggles so much that if, let's pretend, I were to be one of the greatest composers who has earned the title and message to the world of "A young man who faced and accepted a struggle of depression that made him great," I would utterly despise this title. I would instead choose a different title (a different message to the world) of "Struggles and suffering in life is worthless and a life of basically pure pleasure and no struggles or suffering is what makes you great. Therefore, avoid struggles and suffering at all costs and be god-like and superior to these worthless things and become a god through the greatest thing a human being can have (pleasure)."

Um, world already has Pitbull and Will.I.Am and Kesha (and even she is not pleasurepleasurepleasure on her last album... you cannot spend your whole life brushing teeth with bottle of Jack). So your message wouldn't be all that special. Turn on a hip-hop station and you will get this shallow "pleasure and materialism" BS. Hedonism is old.
And no, hedonists aren't universally aclaimed...it's people who actually don't avoid "struggling at all costs".
Please, reconsider your views. Never seen somebody torture themselves and boycott their lives over pursuit of "pleasure" so much (and that includes people who seek pleasure with drugs...).

If I was the greatest composer right now in front of the world, I would purposely say that I had a life of practically pure pleasure with no depression and little struggles in life. I would say this despite the fact that I have and continue to have chronic depression.

Greatness comes from humility too.

This life seems to want to force its inferior message upon people that "Suffering is an inevitable part of life and just has to be accepted" as well as that "The greatest people in life had struggles and depression." I utterly despise these messages and want to portray a different message (a superior) message of my own that goes against these loathsome messages of life. It would be a message that creates a different reality I want (a god-like reality in which we all are gods superior to suffering and such and have all the pleasure in the world). It would be that message of my own that I just quoted above.

no offense, but this sounds delusional. Nobody ever has gotten through life without struggle. You are struggling right now... isn't better to accept this and work with what you got rather than not live at all?
