> I wonder what happens if the cortisol thing is cross-referenced, would there be a correlation?

I think so. Apparently what gives some of the survivors stress is knowing they survived because they had to be a bit of the 'bad guy' by giving up people from their own community, giving them a better chance of survival (not being killed first, at least.)

So yeah, thinking of yourself as a victim or as someone who is okay with knowing that they had to do what they had to do will probably show difference in Cortisol response. Not sure if the research talks about that, just know that explaining people that their 'evil actions' make sense evolutionary speaking (always do as much as you can for survival) showed a lowering stress response.

Crying! It's so true. Also 'Silent Face Syndrome' (unofficial term for a new phenomenon) is now a thing: where the child doesn't get enough facial expressions/response from the parents as they're staring at their phones. It's a huge stressor for a child who doesn't yet have all the means of communication, and gets a huge part of its brain and even immunological development from literally 'being seen'.
