Why do people always feel very upset in summer?

Many people have this experience: it is easy to be irritable in hot summer. What is the reason?

It turns out that emotions are closely related to temperature. In the cold winter, people are lazy and talk less; High temperature makes people irritable. The reason is that temperature affects the emotional regulation center of hypothalamus. This has been confirmed in animal experiments. This is the first point.

Second, the influence of noise. In summer, the doors and windows are wide open, and the noise is louder than in winter, which affects sleep and makes it easy to get angry in summer.

Third, emotions are related to sleep. In hot summer, sleep time is generally reduced, and sleep quality is generally reduced, which also affects mood.

Fourth, living conditions. It lives in a cubicle at home or with several people. After a hard day's work, they returned to the stuffy and crowded cubicle. If they can't have a good rest after work, they will be easily upset and irritable.

Fifth, according to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, liver belongs to "wood" and summer belongs to "fire". Wood will burn when it meets fire, so it will be "angry" in summer.

Summer mood is easy to be agitated, how to carry out self-psychological adjustment? First of all, we should realize that summer is an easy season to get angry, so we should be good at self-restraint and not get angry easily. Being angry only makes people fidgety, just like adding fuel to the fire and feeling hotter. Secondly, according to economic conditions, improve living conditions, increase ventilation and cooling equipment (such as installing electric fans and air conditioners), hang curtains to reduce the radiant heat of sunlight, mop the floor with cold water and lower the room temperature. The mentality naturally cools, the room cools, and the temperament will be calm. Thirdly, enjoying light music with beautiful melody can improve and regulate the emotional regulation of people's cerebral cortex, limbic system and hypothalamus, which is helpful to stabilize emotions and reduce "getting angry". Fourth, emotional transfer, "cold treatment." In interpersonal communication, if you find the other person upset and blunt, you must change the subject. If you find that the other person suddenly changes the topic, you should reflect on whether you are too "tasteful". After paying attention to these problems, it will help to spend a happy and irritable summer.
