Stress, rage, anxiety, heart – some emotions hit so much that they leave you a lump in the throat and never overcome. Enter: Primary cry. Not in public (we don’t try to go that way), but in the safety of your bedroom, the buried face in the pillow. The therapy of screaming may seem dramatic, but it is gaining cravings on the Internet, and even some mental health experts support it.
Wait why people yell at the pillows?
Shouting in your pillow is not quite an innovative concept, but now it is a serious moment on social media. The reason? These are raw, uncompressed exits for great emotions in the world, where we are often told “calm down” or “be positive.” No matter what you are dealing with working stress, dramaturgy, or just a life that is going through, releasing it through a muted cry, may feel amazingly cata.
To the basket
Yes, even the brands catch up. Now there are specially designed “cushions shout” such as Shoutlet, Plight Pillow, Jolly & Goode and The Scream Catcher Pluery starting from ₹2500 to ₹3000. These pillows are made of material containing sound, so your neighbors (or roommates) should not be part of your emotional release.
Does it really help?
According to Dr. President Singh, psychologist Paras Health, Gurugram, does – at least in the short term. “This provides a physical socket for emotional intensity. If we are overwhelmed with stress, anger or disappointment, the Creek Act can help release the built-in energy in such a way that it feels catatic,” she says.
Physiologically, it can activate the stress -reaction of your body, and then help it dump, leaving you easier – at least for a while.
So is it just a quick fix?
To a large extent. They shout at the pillow-it’s rather a “first aid” strategy, not a medicine. “It can lead to temporary fall of stress hormones such as cortisol, and help reduce emotional and physical tensions,” explains D -Singh. But for prolonged emotional regulation, it recommends combining it with sustainable practices such as attentiveness, deep breathing or grounding methods.
What if it becomes every day?
A cry -therapy is not a red flag – it’s a release. Just make sure that this is part of a bigger emotional assistance plan rather than the whole plan. D -R Arusha Devan, Consultant, Clinical Psychology in Aakash Healthcare, suggests:
- Move your body. Physical activity helps free the tension.
- Write out. The magazine can bring clarity and help process what you feel.
- Get creativity. Art, music and even skill can help express emotions when words are missing.
- Let’s talk about it. Therapy offers personalized strategies that work for you.
