Blogpost #6: Sadness: Killing Us Softly

Sadness is an emotional feeling that when you feel down, you feel lost, disadvantage somebody who don’t need you. When you feel sadness it’s indicate by crying. Sadness is one of the six basic emotions along with happiness, anger, surpise, fear and disgust Sadness is lowering the mood.

Now I feel sadness, I’m crying while typing these words I am alone in this four dark of this room, it hurt me a lot, and my heart was aching. I am empty, I’m out of word, and words cannot express what I’m feeling right now. Crying is the best way to relief the sadness, hurt and lost that I’m feeling. I don’t know what to say I don’t find the word to fit with it. The only I know is it hurt a lot and kills me. When I was going to a sadness part of my life I cry, I make myself busy so that I forget the sadness. So I decided that this sadness I feel right now is opportunity to express and be part of my blog since my blog in about feeling and emotion.

I read an article entitled  Feeling Sad Makes Us More Creative by Jonah Lehrer he state that they have an experiment they ask people to give a short speech about their dream job and some where commented on some other say positive and some say negative, but the way of comment was different because if its positive they will smile and vertical nods, and they don’t want your speech they just give a frowns and horizontal shakes. In this experiment DHEAS (dehydroepiandrosterone), deal with it an endogenous hormone that blunts the effects of stress hormones like cortisol. This DHEAS is explains the experiment impulsive mood swings and downward spirals of sadness. Finally, subjects were also asked to self-report their moods, giving the scientists a subjective and objective measurement of how they were feeling, and how the feedback to the speech had shifted their emotional state. While positive feedback cheered. And participants who received smiles and nods during their speeches reported feeling better than before. Negative feedback had the opposite effect.

According to Jonah Lehrer People who received negative feedback created better collages, at least when compared to those who received positive feedback or no feedback at all. Furthermore, those with low baselines of DHEAS proved particularly vulnerable to the external effects of frowns, so that they proved to be the most creative of all.”

This statement clearly state that if you are hurt you created positive impact because if your in hurt there is deeper stories within compared to the people who receive a positive feedback, there is just normal way.

I also read an article Sadness is good for you, scientist say by Richard Alleyne, scientists say that when someone is in hurt, they become better person. We people have easy to become happy but it is easy also to misery after losing a job, the breakup of a relationship or death of love one.  Expert fears the increasing tendency of people taking pills and that pills affect human evolution. Many people have suffered from depression in a long time. One of the four people has been suffer from depression and five percent of the population is currently living they survive the depression. Some are taking drug so that they will surpass the depression where living through and some are choose to give up.

According to Proffessor Jerome Wakefield “When you find something this deeply in us biologically you presume it was selected because it had some advantage - otherwise we wouldn't have been burdened with it. We're fooling around with part of our biological make-up”

When you find yourself in the middle of nowhere, just trust yourself because that sadness help us to became a powerful who we are now today. Sadness is just part of our life’s they are just learning to us.
