Yes. And people tend to avoid that pain.
There's a book by philosopher Paul Watzlawick on the matter: "The Situation is Hopeless, But Not Serious: The Pursuit of Unhappiness"
One way to become unhappy is: The same, but more of it"
I do not agree with Constructivism as a philosophy, but this book is brilliant. Funny, and full of insight.
Mark Twain had a similar idea expressed in a 'space opera' story.
