Joy and laughter prolong life, and it is not very pleasant to deal with a gloomy and unsociable person.
Of course, we are talking about psychological patterns and incorrect attitudes, the roots of which can originate in childhood.
Experts have explained what benefits a person can gain from loving suffering.
Suffering is profitable
Everything happens on a subconscious level. But, one way or another, a person manages to extract “benefits” from suffering.
The most striking example is gaining compassion or sympathy, support, but most importantly – attention to oneself.
Another option is to avoid responsibility for your mistakes or to refuse to make a difficult decision.
Of course, we must not forget that by calling for compassion, a person can force others to turn a blind eye to his personal failures.
How do they do it?
It is enough to just start telling others about your feelings and negative experiences.
The strongest influence on the worldview of such people is exerted by those around them and those close to them.
As a result, the “sufferers” begin to think that their condition is a normal state of affairs.
Man likes to suffer
Typically, such people constantly discuss negative events, often complain, have low or negative self-esteem, and consciously avoid positive moments.
