Why do many people feel depressed on rainy days?

Since ancient times, poets, novelists and songwriters all like to use rain to express their depressed and depressed emotions. We also know that rain is a kind of weather, so why it represents depression is actually reasonable.

On rainy days, although the air outside is fresh, it will definitely bring trouble to everyone's travel, so many people choose to lie in bed at home, watch plays and play cards. Because of the weather, we start to be agitated, so your mood will be very depressed.

Under strong light, the pineal gland of the brain secretes the neurotransmitter serotonin, which makes people feel euphoric; In the dark environment, the secretion of serotonin is less, while the secretion of melatonin helps people sleep. The clinical study of melatonin may be related to depression, and patients with depression often shut themselves in the dark. Therefore, rainy days are easy to make people feel depressed and listless, while sunny days are easy to make people feel happy and full of energy. This is why people are depressed when it rains.

In fact, rainy days are particularly easy to make people feel lonely, so there will always be such a sentence "I miss you especially in rainy days" to express my thoughts on my lover and my depressed mood of not meeting you in rainy days. More and more scientists believe that there is a direct causal relationship between climate and people's mood. Posinger said that the human body has the function of coping with changes at any time, and the weather is always changing-just like our mood.

So people's mood is constantly changing, and so is the weather. Sunny weather will definitely make you feel particularly happy, and rainy weather will only make people particularly depressed.
