  1. I know nothing about you other than what you told me. Tell me if I am right. You worry a LOT about the future, more than your other friends do for the most part. You are more concerned with the future than with the past or the present. You frequently feel emotionally numb. The reason I think this is that concern of the future is related to anxiety. Anxiety is related to increased cortisol production. Cortisol inhibits sleep. Cortisol spikes memory based upon fear and concern, especially hidden dangers. Cortisol also inhibits all emotions that are not based specifically on fear (so feel less pleasure, feel less sadness).
