It’s a more complex version of the Fear package. Instead of just reacting to immediate threats, your brain learned to anticipate them. To run simulations. To think about threats that might happen. That’s useful when you’re facing unpredictable environments. You can prepare for dangers before they arrive. The problem is that this more advanced algorithm got evolved wickedly for the modern world. It keeps running in the background. It keeps generating warnings and running simulations. It loops through worst-case scenarios because if you think through every possible bad outcome, maybe you’ll prevent it. Your conscious mind can see the threat detection is faulty. You can say this is clearly a false positive. But the algorithm doesn’t listen. It just keeps firing. You’re running prehistoric software on modern hardware. And there’s no way to uninstall it.
