Why does using mathematical coping mechanisms help calm someone down when they are angry or when they are very anxious about something?

The reason that mathematical coping mechanisms work is because for the person using the mathematical coping mechanisms, their attention is taken off whatever is making them anxious or angry or depressed, and instead their focus is on trying to figure out the answer to the mathematical question. People cannot be angry and figure out the answer to math problems at the same time. The same is true about people who are anxious or depressed. People can't be anxious or depressed while at the same time trying to figure out answers to mathematical questions or find mathematical patterns.
