You release into Dionysian ecstasy too early, even though there are diminishing returns to appreciating the increase in ecstasy at those high levels. You push to go higher but you’re only moving horizontally, not really enjoying it as much anymore but still just holding onto the plateau for fear of falling while your wings are burning the whole time.

Better to keep the ecstasy channeled in Apollonian and let it grow in tiers. This way the ecstasy fills each tier and is “saved” in some sense and the drug high can grow and grow, slowly but consistently, upward.
