This thought is not true, in my opinion.
First, because WE are human beings, that is, organic beings whose main istinct is to "MAINTAIN OURSELVES AS WE ARE" (the survival instinct as explained by Baruch Spinoza).
Second, when you fight for yourself against nature's dangers (including other human beings), your sense of suffering gives you more strength, and more capacity to endure more suffering in the future; e.g. as you get older, you ignore the intensity of suffering, but BEFORE THAT, you have had to learn to suffer.
Third, after enduring pain, you enjoy enjoyment more than before.
Conclusion: suffer anxiety, because at the end of the day, you will learn to control its intensity over you, and you will enjoy more.
Common sense as explained by Aristotle's ethics books (you got to read them and quote them, please... jajaj).
Take care (I am enjoying your blog; it is superb and original).
