If someone tells you that swearing is ‘good’ for your health, you may find it strange. A variety of studies on abusers have said the same. Swearing is generally considered a sign of ignorance. In a civilized society, one who abuses is called uneducated, uncivilized. However, several studies have shown that such people are happier and less stressed than non-abusers. Even the ability of such people to fight problems increases. This is why people in many countries are told to release their anger during gym or yoga classes. Along with exercise in such gyms, people also abuse.
People’s lifestyle has become very fast. Anxiety about going to office as soon as you wake up, then worry about going to office and work. Traffic jams while returning home after working all day and stress on reaching home. All these things lead to stress. In fact, one does not get time for oneself in this rush. As a result, the person gets irritated by human nature, after which he starts swearing. Even if it seems wrong to the other person, swearing is also a way to vent anger.
It is not a good thing to abuse someone or to be angry with them in a wrong way. However, you may have seen many times that some people abuse each other. In fact, they are venting their frustration on this pretext. A study on this was done at Kean University in New Jersey. Accordingly, swearing increases our ability to fight problems. In this, the university conducted research on some students who used to abuse each other. Researchers put such students’ hands in very cold water; Meanwhile, the students who were cursing managed to keep their hands in the water for a long time. At the same time, the calm students quickly took their hands out of the water.
