Gossip is good for women's mental health

Appropriate gossip is good for women's mental health. The average woman can keep a secret for no more than 47 hours. Researchers found that once women hear some gossip, they find it difficult to resist sharing it with others. Psychological experts point out that as long as gossip is appropriate and not excessive, appropriate gossip is good for women's mental health.

Gossiping can relieve stress

Many people have this impression: as long as a few women sit together, they will start gossiping about everything under the sun, from foreign princes and princesses to domestic entertainment celebrities, from astronomy and geography to which mall is having a discount recently and which brand of new shoes has more beautiful styles... Appropriate gossip is good for health. Gossip is also a normal way of communication. It is precisely because of the love of gossip that pressure has an outlet. It is especially a good opportunity for those who have not had a person to talk to for a long time to release pressure. Gossiping with others can help them release the pressure caused by their pain in time.

A study in the United States also confirmed that chatting with female friends frequently can help women reduce stress and anxiety, and is beneficial to both physical and mental health. The professor in charge of the study at the University of Michigan pointed out that progesterone plays an important role in building interpersonal relationships and making women more willing to help others. It can make women willing to take more risks in the process of helping others. Research results confirm that if women often chat and gossip with others, it can increase the progesterone in the body, make them feel happier and healthier after relieving stress.
