Totally the same on distracting myself from pain by talking to others pattern! It is a big part of why I put myself in social situations despite being in pain.

At the end of the day, it is all crappy 1st order approximations of ideal behavior. That is the best humans can do. So we should try and make sure the "error" on those gets spread around/rotated in time rather than consistently excluding anybody.
