I have easier ways to provoke a fight or flight response from my brain, such as receiving a phone call from an unknown number, or having to schedule an appointment in advance
Surprise: it's an unknown charge on your credit card. You'll have to call support and get a new card issued! Oooooo
Jokes on you, I can disable the old card and order the new one though the mobile app now! Which happened at least once already. Welcome to the future, where we automate away the human contact and I'm all for it
The app needs to update and forgot your stored credentials oooooooooooO
Fortunately, this one is self induced.
Cool thing is you can train your flight or fight response with things like cold plunges to be more useful. Cold showers might be a way to reduce your unneeded response to harmless things like phone calls.
