Pain is psychosomatic. A broken heart physically hurts, and a broken bone will ruin your mood. A similar result was found in parents with opiate abuse disorder, they were less likely to notice negative emotional states when shown pictures of children in various moods. I don't think this result is concerning except for people who are taking NSAIDs on a daily basis for long periods of time.
- acchow 4y ago> and a broken bone will ruin your mood Curious thing I've noticed - physical ailments had very little effect on my mood as a child, but have a significant impact on my mood in my 30s. Something even as simple as a cold can make me unwilling to be helpful, empathetic, etc now. Why is this?
