Laughter certainly is 'just what the doctor would order' as it releases the much needed 'happy hormones' which will lift your mood + aid any anti depressant medication that you may be taking.
In my opinion you can't beat a good laugh.
Love and laughter makes the world go round. xx
Stumpy , don't waste your energy worrying about the 'crash', enjoy the laughter and the good feeling that it brings.
Well the crash wasn't as bad as I expected, it was a little bumpy but I coped ok, I think mainly because I was looking forward to what I knew would be a good day today, although my expectations were a little lower than just how good my day would be

I just had a birthday message from my counsellor on Facebook, and in a following message he sent me a sticker, that upon first glance, looked rude, I laughed so much, I was crying, I feel great, I can't get down from the good feeling, usually laughter never has quite that powerful an effect.
Does laughter help to lift depression, does anyone else experience a high that you cannot shake just from laughter?
Is there a chemical involved in the laughter process, can I mimic it?
I've needed that for a long time, but being stuck in this high, I'm worried about an extreme crash later.
