” Does hedonism bring happiness?”
Like anything else...yes, in moderation.

The moderation part makes it not hedonism. We want joy. We want moments of extreme fun and ecstasy. But you don’t want a permanent orgasm; it’s like being paralyzed and has more in common with pain than pleasure. We want general happiness in our life, and constraining our urges brings us more general contentment than acting like squirrels following instincts would.
