Buddhists must be impenetrable if this is true.
This ‘mental time travel’ ability—whereby we project ourselves into the past or future, and unroll events, actual or potential—is the mechanism of experience when it comes to the present moment, too: that is to say, we do not actually experience being present, but we rather experience a kind of illusion of being present, the projection of ourselves into ‘now’.

I wonder if anyone has ever had sustained anxiety without using drugs or alcohol or planning to fail? I have known alcoholics who used alcohol and then started experiencing "anxiety." I have known people who have used drugs and then start experiencing "anxiety. " I have known people who are terrible at planning and decision-making and continually experience "anxiety. " I can not recall ever meeting someone who had never used drugs/alcohol and doesn't suck at planning and decision-making that has ever experienced persistent "anxiety. "
Anxiety isn't fun.
