  I mean if a meteor is coming, I’m not worrying.

    I agree. Not sure that necessarily means we’re mentally stable.

  You CAN do something: change you job, study something to improve your skills, change country if you must.

    The important point is not to do something, but rather to solve the problem. And some people simply can’t, and it sucks.

      I don’t think that’s true. Humans are incredibly good at solving problems, so I really don’t think “can’t” is really ever applicable. The tighter the spot, the more ingenuity it takes to solve the problem. But a solution can always be found or created.

      You may not be able to solve the program now, but you can probably do something to help you solve it later.

        This is reductive to the point of absurdity, if this were true no one would ever die from any problem (i.e. drowning, falling, etc.) They’d simply activate ingenuity.

        Some problems do not have a solution in a given circumstance.

        E.g. I’m locked in a prison on a sinking ship that’s already 1km underwater, and my cell is completely full of water and I’ve held my breath for 2 minutes now.

        Of course there are unsolvable problems. This is true in both theory and practice. If your family member has late-stage cancer, let’s suppose.

      Humans are incredible at filtering, therefore a solution can float right on by if it isn’t the “right one”. Also solutions to most problems come by as a result of completely unrelated activity. Therefore it is incredibly important to be doing something, anything that isn’t directly destructive to your goals.

    Not always. For example, I’m 100% disabled with a neurodegenerative disease for which there’s no treatment or cure.

    This is good advice if you’re not locked in a situation entirely out of your control, but for plenty of people it’s not that simple.

      I’m sorry, but all civilized countries in the word offer some social assistance to people in your situation. Put together all disabled people and their families and fight for your rights.

      • LillyPip@lemmy.ca ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        People have been fighting for those rights for decades. That doesn’t change the fact some people are destitute because of health issues with no way to improve their personal situation. And if I had the physical ability to organise people and fight for things, I’d have the ability to work. I’m not sure you know what ‘100% disabled’ actually means.

  Well, worrying about it certainly won’t do anything to improve the situation
