        That is a basic survival worry. I tend to believe that humans faced with real survival issues are less negatively impacted than those who have material worries.

        My stress about work is killing me.

        My stress about not freezing to death leads me to do things like chopping wood, lighting fires, and maintaining my chimney. Which are all good things.

          Indeed, the majority of us aren’t made to worry about arbitrary problems that are beyond our control constantly more than trivial and survival related problems.
