Worrying isn't about hurting other people. It's about being emotionally invested in the world around you, a process that requires negative emotions.

It doesn't have to accomplish anything. Emotions don't have to be productive to be justified. They're a part of life and a part of being human, and you'd do well to accept that.

It does have to accomplish something otherwise I'm worrying for no reason which is self-harm at that point.

It literally doesn't and no one owes you a justification for their own emotions. Mind your business
