We all know that a person’s health problems are related to many factors, besides the familiar physiological factors that affect them, there are also psychological factors, and the negative emotions that we often encounter in our lives not only make us feel bad, but also affect our health.
Negative Emotion #1: Stress
The effects of regular stress, which means enduring the ravages of chronic stress, are obvious. Tension and relaxation will put your body into a long-term virtuous cycle of strengthening your body and recovering from fatigue. Both memory and accuracy can be restored. If you do not guard against this “intruder”, you are easily fatigued, depressed, the ability to reproduce will be reduced. High blood sugar and fatty acids can put you at risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes if you are under this chronic stress for years
Negative emotion #2: Suck it up
It’s hard to say whether it’s better to vent your troubles or to hold them in. The reason is simple: both of these practices have side effects. The University of Michigan once conducted an experiment. Several authorities inexplicably shouted at the subjects. The women who held their tongue in the face of this situation were twice as likely to die of heart disease, stroke or cancer. The anger comes out, although only for a few minutes, but adrenaline, blood pressure and heart rhythm will increase. For a person over the age of 50, the likelihood of suffering a heart attack or stroke is five times greater. Even a sulky face, including impatience, worry, and displeasure, can damage health because these emotions can lower immunity.

Negative emotion #3: Having a big fight
When you get angry, you feel your blood pressure rising – which is exactly what often happens when people fight with each other, and the effects will be long-lasting. A week after the event, your blood pressure will rise again at the thought of that fight. If there was something unpleasant recently or had a fight with someone else, it is best not to hold on to it and forget about it as soon as possible. It has been studied that a half-hour fight with a lover increases your body’s self-healing time by at least a day. Couples who fight a lot will increase their self-healing time exponentially.
Negative emotion #4: Jealousy outbursts
Jealousy outbursts, or what we often call jealousy outbursts. Jealousy is the most lethal, most painful, and most difficult to control human emotions. The typical manifestation of men’s jealousy is the staining of the woman they love by others, while women’s jealousy is the suspicion brought on by emotional betrayal. Experts say emotions are a complex of feelings filled with fear, stress and anger. When jealousy flares up, people tend to have higher blood pressure, faster heart rates and increased adrenaline levels, while immunity, anxiety and perhaps insomnia are diminished.
Negative emotion #5: Moping
Depression, pessimism, and indifference to what’s going on around you are associated with low levels of serotonin and dopamine, two of the brain’s feel-good neurotransmitters. Serotonin can play a role in regulating pain sensation. It is for this reason that forty-five percent of people with depression suffer from pain. Low mood is also associated with poor sleep, fatigue, and sexual dysfunction.

Negative emotion #6: crying out in pain
Crying out in pain can really bring out negative emotions. There was an experiment done that compared two types of tears. One kind of tears because of emotional reasons, and the other kind of tears because of hot onion eyes. It turns out that the tears of emotion contain high levels of hormones and stress-related neurotransmitters. Not only that, but such tears also led to a decrease in blood pressure, a decrease in pulse beats, and an increase in synchronized brain wave models. The conclusion is that shedding tears for feelings can reduce stress chemicals. If tears are not released, you are in a completely unnecessary stressful situation and your body is vulnerable to the negative effects of anxiety, including decreased immunity, memory damage, and reduced digestion.
Health TIPS: Bad Emotions and Cancer
Numerous studies at home and abroad have shown that chronically depressed and dissatisfied emotions, such as depression, sadness, fear, and anger, can easily trigger cancer. The sudden death or sudden loss of security of a beloved one is also a trigger for the development of cancer.
Emotions are also significantly associated with the effectiveness of cancer treatment and the recurrence rate of cancer. A happy mood facilitates cancer treatment; a pessimistic, despairing mood often exacerbates cancer. Controlled studies of patients with cervical cancer have shown that under the same anti-cancer treatment conditions, patients with the right attitude toward the disease and good mood had higher outcomes and longer life extension dates, whereas patients with anxiety, fear, and pessimism about cancer had rapid deterioration and died quickly.
