ð "Heartbroken to death" exists...Not just in the drama plot! Sounds like a dramatic story.
ð "heartbreaking to death" exists...Not just in the theatrical plot!
It sounds like a dramatic story, but you know what?..People can really die of "heartbreaking" feelings. ðĨš
In medicine, the condition is called Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy. ðŦ
When we are faced with severe loss or sadness, our brains secrete enormous "stress hormone storms," in which these hormones can temporarily disrupt our heart muscles. ðŠïļ
This is not just a common sense of mental sadness, but the physical stress caused is so severe that it puts enormous pressure on the structure and tendons of the heart (what many call heart strings), resulting in the heart changing shape and temporarily losing the ability to pump blood into the body. ð
Chest pain when we are overwhelmed by sadness...That's the body's reaction to the physical changes of your heart. ðĪ
The good news is...Most patients can recover and return to normal if they are closely cared for and adequately rested, ðĐđ but even then, the link between "mind" and "body" is powerful enough to be fatal if we overlook it.
In difficult times, remember to be very kind to yourself, because your heart is really 'feeling' and carrying everything you're going through. âĪïļâðĐđ
