Research shows that swearing can release depression

Married life is very depressing. We can't do whatever we want. However, due to the pressure caused by society, we swear only to ease. This is also called no quality?

As an alternative in language, swearing has been everywhere. We express anger by swearing, vent our emotions and resist Harm & hellip& hellip; At the same time, emphasize their own existence and strength.

Our society is becoming more and more elite. In all aspects of dress, words and deeds, people are trying to get close to the elite. It seems that only those who are restrained and elegant are trustworthy. In the process of catching up with the elite culture, the elites, or quasi elites, and we who are bound to become elites, as human instincts, are suppressed layer by layer.

This includes Freud's emphasis on aggressive instinct. From this point of view, we can easily understand that swearing is to meet those repressed desire to attack. In this regard, the American psychologist and swearing expert Dimon Seger explained: "swearing is the primitive instinct of human beings, and even the painkiller of human soul, because swearing can make our brain free.

Swearing can release depression

The more depressed you are, the more you need immediate vent. Among the ways we can vent, swearing is undoubtedly the easiest, fastest and most direct choice. To vent, there must be an outlet. In fact, people have been making full use of their outlets to express attacks: staring, showing anger and resentment through their eyes; Some people like to spit people, the same is true.

"I admit that I sometimes deliberately expose rude words on some occasions." as a teacher, Zhang Quna described herself: "in other times, I try my best to restrain and can't stop the dirty words coming out of my mouth. I've had enough in front of the students! Some people think I'm pretending to be cool. The fact is that sometimes only dirty words can make me feel real. "

Scientific research on dirty words

Unique physiological basis: American neuroscience research found that when people swear, the frontal lobe system in charge of emotional activities in the brain is activated; In other language activities, the outer area of the cerebral cortex is more active - as if nerve cells there could filter out dirty words.

Lifelong speech ability: Research on patients with Alzheimer's disease found that although they forgot the names of their relatives and their vocabulary decreased significantly, they can still swear.

Effective attack weapon: Russian scientists confirmed the attack effect of dirty words. They scolded a glass of water with selected dirty words, and then watered barley seeds with the water.

Results the germination rate of seeds was only 48%, while that of seeds watered with spring water was 93%.

Let's be more sincere: in a Dutch study, researchers deleted all the dirty words from a suspect's testimony record and then gave it to people to read. As a result, people's confidence in it is much lower than that of the original text. This may be because we are willing to believe that emotional swears are less likely to lie.
