Here's an interesting article I found...

Being highly intelligent and social, humans suffer from more stress-related diseases than any other animal, worrying about family, health, jobs and even the future. The average beast, on the other hand, does not spend much time worrying about these things.

But baboons do stress out, according to research presented here Saturday at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.


Why Humans (and Baboons) Stress So Much

Hi Vishal,

I agree that we are more preoccupied with more stressful thoughts and we probably go deeper in the realm of despair than other animals.

I think we tend to invent problems more than any other animal :D

That's probably one of our biggest flaws. Most of our fears never manifest yet we are obsessed with imaginary fears.

Interesting article.
