Humor: Laughter Can Help
By Lorraine Roach
Everyone
has their own idea of what they consider funny. I believe that humor
depends on the mood you are in. Sometimes what you think is funny today
may cause you to be annoyed another day. Perhaps humour is a subjective
thing that feeds off of people’s ability to relax and respond
naturally.

I
know that when you have a good belly laugh as it is called you forget
everything temporarily. When you put your heart and sole into laughing
at something it is good for anxiety, stress and depression. The
endorphins released in the brain act on your mood. I personally have
experienced this when watching a comedic movie. I really do not usually
watch these types of movies but whenever I do I get the same reaction
in my mood. I feel happier and cannot believe I am having such a good
time.
How would a person who is suffering from anxiety
and other traumatic issues even get to the point of watching a movie
that was funny? Feeling anxious, panicky, depressed and stressed
usually does not make you want to sit and watch something funny.
I would invite someone to join me for the movie at
home on the television or I would offer to take him or her out to the
theatre and pay his or her admission. Perhaps getting a group of
friends together and going to a comedy club would be a suggestion. Just
getting the person occupied and involved with something other than
their problems would be a diversion and help give them some relief from
their situation. Even if they did not laugh outwardly and you seemed to
be dragging them along, I feel that getting up and moving and being
distracted can and has worked for me when I felt depressed.
In other words I feel that humor is the best
medicine and although it is not the total answer to all of lifes
problems it does give us a safe way to escape temporarily the moments
in life that we need help with.If you look around you there is
something funny going on at least once a day. Add humor to your other
techniques when working on anxiety and panic.
It takes repetition and a desire to change for
something to become a habit. I have read that twenty-one days is the
usual time for a change to occur when a person is motivated by emotion.
Associate the behaviour you want to change with an emotion. This is a
powerful tool to use in combination because these two things impress
the change you want into your subconscious mind.

Put
one funny joke, movie, story or recognize those situations that can
come up unexpectedly in your daily routine.Maybe you will be the one
who is providing the comic relief for someone else and helping him or
her forget the anxiety they have for a moment. Doing something for
someone else is also a way to feel good about you.
Laughing at and with yourself even when you are
alone or in a crowd is a way of getting to know, care and value
yourself.
