5 physical signs of intense sadness

Why?  If you constantly fight negative emotions, your nervous system is put under great strain and your body becomes exhausted.

  1. Delayed speech and lack of enthusiasm

When you’re sad, even speaking becomes difficult. Words come slower, discussions become more intense, and the desire to share something disappears.

Why?  Sadness slows down thinking, which slows thinking and reduces motivation to communicate.

  1. Back pain and muscle tension

Persistent back pain for no apparent reason? This could be a sign of suppressed sadness. Tension builds up in the spine, which is particularly sensitive to emotional stress, leading to pain, especially in the lower back.
