Psychologist Explains What Diseases Arise Due to Loneliness
Few people realize it, but prolonged loneliness can cause health problems.
This statement was made by psychologist Anton Polyakov, writes Vechernyaya Moskva .
He stressed that a person faces stress and then the consequences.
As the doctor noted, if a person is lonely for a long period, then he experiences a release of cortisol, which damages the hippocapnal gyrus, which ultimately reduces memory.
The release of cortisol leads to overeating. As a result, weight increases and a person may begin to suffer from obesity. This can also lead to an eating disorder.
Loneliness reduces the levels of neurotransmitters responsible for mood, which ultimately increases the risk of panic attacks and anxiety.
But that's not all the downsides. Polyakov added during a conversation with journalists that loneliness reduces the neurotransmitters responsible for mood, and also increases the risk of panic attacks or anxiety.
