It is a known fact that if we do not feel pain results thereof could be disastrous. Having no emotions is yet another situation where things can go awry.
But no one ever talks about worryng being a good thing. Just as there is what we call art of living, there is art of worrying too.
Worrying sensibly can help us identify situations to address them. They even sharpen our brain to think better.
How do you go about it. Do you spend sleepless nights over issues that need solutions? Or use this trigger to arrive at positive results.

How has your life been with this attitude. Anything good or bad that you wish to share?

@allknowing I might be the wrong person to ask. At this point in my life I'm in such a deep state of depression that I have an "I don't care" attitude about everything. I'm pretty emotionless. That part is working pretty good because things that should hurt me, aren't. So the worrying, I don't worry about. Because I ready don't care.
I'm so terrible I know

You said it. as worrying per se is not considered to be a bad thing.

I try to forget my worries when I go to sleep. It's hard to do, but if I go to sleep feeling worried I wouldn't be able to sleep well and would wake up feeling more miserable than before.

I agree that thinking over a problem can help us to find a solution. Worrying makes me think more of creating castles in the sky , that are bigger than the original difficulty and which far from being solved, seem to get bigger

I suppose thinking over a problem and worrying are two different approaches. May be we could then say the art of thinking? (lol)

@allknowing human rationality depends upon sofistucated emotionality. In order to be happy we have to make ballance between two of these. If you have no emotions you are a psychopath and if you have too much emotions they will eventually eat you out

The trapeze act or simply put the balancing act one sees at every step of the way in our life. The one who knows how to do it is the winner.
