Great write up! I resteemed it earlier to read after work like now :)

maybe as a means of self sabotage...

Im pritty certain that as we live in such comforts and conveniences that this is all our mind has now left to do hahahahah! Its bored because its still in reptilian mode and looking for the tiger hiding in the grass ready to pounce, but the thing is, there are no threats in the white man world (oh, unless you watch tv then there's many) and so could it be the modern mind has become bored of the continuous flight or fight mode and has turned to self destruction?!
