Stoicism is extremely critical of living a hedonistic lifestyle. Stoics worry that excessive pursuit of pleasure can lead to: * Unnecessary suffering: When things don't go as planned, the hedonist might experience disappointment or even despair. * Moral compromises: The pursuit of pleasure can sometimes lead to actions that are harmful to oneself or others. * Distraction from true meaning: Focusing too much on pleasure can distract from what truly matters in life: virtue, relationships, and contributing to something larger than oneself.
