Is laughter the dose of stress buster?

OOhhhh yeah. Laughter produces endorphins, or happy hormones, which mean your mood is lifted and you can see things in a more positive light. Exercise, orgasms and chocolate all make the body produce endorphins. Have fun getting happy, dude!

Most of the time I have to try hard *not* to laugh.  lol  I find humor in such a wide assortment of things... and some of them aren't even supposed to be funny.  Perhaps I use humor as a way to create levity to an otherwise heavy situation.  Because you know what they say "If I don't laugh....I'm gonna cry".  And, well, crying isn't nearly as fun as laughing.  Unless of course, you laugh yourself to tears. lol  Hmmmm... did I answer your question yet?  Sheesh - I have no idea.  I guess I was born with some sort of sense of humor.... even if I am the only one who finds it amusing!

Yes. This activity is also great stress relief. Every year for Christmas, I travel home and meet up with my brother (both of us are in our 30s now) and we have sooo much fun just being "silly" in public. He was singing his loudest at the mall Christmas songs and turning the shopping carts making noise with them... just attracting attention from everyone. It is sooo much fun, especially when you know you probably won't see these people again.\n\nWe also went on a cruise a few years ago and did some "silly" things there. Pushing all the buttons in the elevators, regardless of who was watching. He got the waiters to cut up his food for him during the meals. Some people were talking extremely loud and annoying, so we started doing the same thing (and they shut up).\n\nDuring the family reunions, we do the walkie talkie things. We usually meet up in a small town somewhere and then the entire family (usually over a 100 of us) spread out and go shopping and what not. That's when we break out the walkie talkies... trying to talk in code and attract attention...\n\nThis is really fun to do and such a great stress relief. Some people are just embarrassed by the whole thing, but I look forward to it everytime we get together.

No. I laugh about it.

Yes it is.\nThe ability of laughter to cause laughter indicates that humans might have "auditory feature detectors"--neural circuits that respond exclusively to this species-typical vocalization". These detectors trigger the neural circuits that generate laughter. A laugh generator that is initiated by a laugh detector may be why laughter is contagious.

No.. Laughing causes additional wrinkles on a person's face..

Anything can be funny.  Ever get the giggles over no particular reason?  You try to stop, but all your friend has to do is look at you?  And you can't stop laughing?

Some people might criticize the way I handle stress, but I think it's very healthy.  Rather than playing it cool and denying that I am under stress, I yell, curse, and throw things.  I don't do this around others though.  The point is that I acknowledge my feelings.  If times get really hard, then I find that a nice drink helps, LOL.
