Patients and doctors alike have long believed in the healing (治療) power of humor．It is claimed that humor not only affects patients’ moods，but can actually help them recover faster.

Several studies seem to support this．Patients in better spirits are known to have higher immune cell counts．Some have even claimed to have healed themselves of serious illnesses by reading comics and watching comedies.

Despite all this，many researchers are not convinceD． They point out the fact that many sufferings have been known to disappear naturally，with or without a daily dose of laughter．They also say that while optimism in general does seem to be related to better health，it is hard to tell which comes first.

Humor in times of stress，however，clearly makes us feel better．On one level，it takes our minds off our troubles and relaxes us．On another，it releases powerful endorphins，a chemical produced by your body that reduces pain．

There are cases where the appreciation of a good joke is indeed directly related to a person’s health．It can show，for example，whether a person has suffered damage to one particular area of the brain: the right frontal lobe (額葉)．

Scientists confirmed this by having people read jokes and asking them to choose the funniest endings from a list．Subjects with normal brains usually chose endings that were based on a relatively complex synthesis (綜合) of ideas．Subjects with specifically located brain damage，however，responded only to slapstick (鬧劇) endings，which did not depend on a particular context．When pressed，the brain-damaged subjects saw the logic in the correct endings．They simply did not find them funny.

Of course，humor is largely an individual matter．Next time your friend does not get one of your jokes，there is no need to accuse him of being a lamebrain．However，you might suggest that he lighten up—for the health of it．

What can you do when you are unhappy？If you want to let out your anger or pressure by breaking things，you just do．Now a school in Nanjing has built a “stress wall” to help students who feel unhappy due to heavy schoolwork or for other reasons.

The leader of the school said the idea of a stress wall started when footprints were found on some newly painted walls and some school windows were broken.

“These things happen because some students feel lots of pressure from their studies or because they don’t get along well with other students．When under stress，the body gets ready to either run or fight and becomes very nervous．Hitting the wall can help relax the body and take away stress，” he said.

“Tests and homework make me sad，” said a junior girl，“I can’t wait to hit the wall．It will help me a lot with my problems.” However，another girl student who wouldn’t give her name said，” The wall won’t help because it can’t talk，” and she added，” I need to talk to someone when I’m sad.”
