Incidentally, "The Buddha’s practice with discomfort is to turn toward it, [..]' was the theme of a book I heard recently which dwells on it. Pema Chödrön is a disciple of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche. Her 'When Things Fall Apart' is a profound meditation on facing our fears and anxieties in the bleakest of (personal) times.

Have been practicing sitting with discomfort these last few months. You do develop an ease with it with time.
