Reply to Researchers show that the same system in the brain that enables us to avoid danger is also activated during selfless, helping behaviour: “These results contradict the conventional wisdom that we need to suppress our own fear system in order to help others who are in danger” by giuliomagnifico
My thinking is it's fear, but on behalf of another person. Same emotion/ fight or flight part of the brain.

Reply to comment by Ok_Fox_1770 in Research shows that people in good physical shape are less likely to need a sleeping pill prescription. The beneficial effect of exercise is stronger for men, who have a 15% lower risk of needing drugs for troublesome sleep issues but also women can benefit from it by giuliomagnifico
I'm also in a trade and always wondered to what degree being perpetually busy counted for exercise. Walking around is effortless but climbing up and down the mezzanines kinda sucks, right? Bending conduit and pulling wire isn't effortless but not quite the rowing machine at the gym either. Then again you're doing this kinda thing for 8 hours. I get great sleep though even though I wouldn't say I was exhausted unless I'm working 6/10s or something.
