Is crying good for the body? Does crying have any effect on the body?

When a person is unhappy, the most he can get is to "smile". Few people advised him to "cry". Crying is fixed in people's minds as an emotional response to physical poisoning.

However, recent experiments and studies by scientists have come to a very different conclusion: crying is beneficial for relieving emotional stress. 。

Psychologist Kpil surveyed 137 people and divided them into healthy and sick groups. The affected group are patients with ulcer disease and colitis, two diseases closely related to mental stress. The results showed that the healthy group cried more often than the sick group, and felt much better after crying than before crying.

Further research has found that when people are emotionally depressed, they produce certain bioactive substances that are harmful to the human body. When crying, these harmful chemicals are excreted with the tears, which effectively reduces the concentration of harmful substances and relieves tension. Studies have shown that when people cry, their emotional intensity is generally reduced by 40%.

This explains why you feel so much better after crying than you did before crying. As a common emotional response, crying plays an effective protective role in people's psychology. When your spirit suffers a sudden blow, when you are depressed, you might as well cry happily.

Don't hold back your tears, that will aggravate your depression and make you sick. Strong negative emotions cause you to have a high degree of psychological tension, and when this tension is suppressed by you and cannot be released, it is bound to become a kind of accumulated energy, causing disorders in the function of the body's autonomic nervous system, and over time, it will cause damage to physical and mental health, and contribute to the occurrence and deterioration of certain diseases. Crying can provide a way to release energy, relieve psychological tension, and relieve emotional stress, thus effectively avoiding or reducing the occurrence and development of such diseases.

American biochemist Ferrey believes that not crying when people are sad is harmful to health and is a chronic effect. His survey found that people who did not cry for a long time were twice as likely to be sick as those who cried. For this we have reason to believe:

Crying is wholesome. Crying caused by emotional changes is a natural response of the body and does not need to be restrained. Especially if you're depressed.

If it's good, everyone should go and cry

This is the outgas, which is also good for the body.

Crying is not only an expression of emotion, but also a kind of emotional venting, it should be said that moderate crying is still good for the body, but if the crying is excessive, or a cry can not be contained, it will affect the physical health. First of all, physiologically speaking, excessive crying can damage the throat and vocal cords. Whether it is a silent cry or a loud cry, it will damage the throat and vocal cords without exception; Secondly, excessive crying can cause cerebral ischemia or hypoxia, which in turn causes nervous disorders, resulting in dizziness and headaches; In addition, excessive crying can easily cause redness and swelling of the eyes, and can also be complicated by inflammation, so there is a folk saying that crying blindly.

Psychologically speaking, if a person is particularly prone to crying, or often crying, over time, it will inevitably lead to a deterioration of his psychological endurance, emotional becoming extremely fragile, vulnerable to external injury, and even causing insanity; At the same time, excessive crying can make a person's personality introverted or quirky. People who cry a lot are generally reluctant to tell others anything, and over time they form an introverted personality; People who cry at every turn can also be confusing and give people a sense of eccentricity. Therefore, whether we express our feelings or vent our emotions, we should cry in moderation and moderation, so as not to affect our health.

It's not good, but if you want to cry, you have to cry and adopt it.
