cranial conundrum

assume the existence of some person X. X cannot be happy because X's brain gets
worried when X is happy that X is not worrying enough about things that X should be worrying about. For the exact same reason X cannot have fun, because whenever X has fun the brain's response is to drive X into depression for not being depressed enough.

Is there a solution to X's dilemma?

My answer is right there in your earlier post here.

Sorry. Could not resist.

How is this a problem? This is in fact the solution. If you worry always, then you're gonna be at a constant state of worry. With time, this level of worrying will stop worrying you and you will have nothing to worry about - unless you are the kind of person who worries about having nothing to worry about. In any case, the problem is worry worry simple.
