Is there any psychological benefit to worrying and do women worry more than men on average?

Asked by dannyc (5257points) July 24th, 2009

I have a friend whose 15 year old daughter just went on a summer school trip to France and is simply a wreck with worry. I have tried to put in my 2 cents to try and assuage her fears, to no avail. Is there some cathartic benefit to all of that energy in worrying that I am not aware of?
