Have you ever known people that continually walk around with a scowl on their face? Or simply never find the humor in anything? Have you ever noticed that these are the same people who are continually sick or living life under a dark cloud?

IS IT TRUE THAT LAUGHTER IS ALWAYS THE BEST MEDICINE? Submitted by Logan Lindabury
I found this question on Yahoo! Answers and would like to answer it here. First, I try not to use words like “always” because they put a constraint on the situation. You don’t know the full circumstances of every situation that will ever occur. So to say something, even laughter, will “always be the best medicine” is a bit of an overstatement.
But I do think laughter is an incredible alternative to taking traditional medicines. Laughter heals you in ways traditional medicine may be unable to; and at a much faster pace. Laughter helps clear your mind and focus on the positivity in life; which helps you think about what you really want as opposed to what is preventing you from getting it. And plus, laughter is natural.
However, I am by NO means telling you not to take traditional medicine. There are countless examples where laughter, coupled with traditional medicine, is necessary. You be the judge.
Now, how do you laugh when you’re dealing with such a negative situation such as a serious illness? Start by watching comedians, funny movies, or anything funny on TV. Make sure it’s the type of funny that makes YOU laugh. Because if it doesn’t it’d be like watching a spider climb up the water spout; interesting but essentially pointless.
Read funny books, joke books, or humorous stories. I’m sure you can find some online. Last year around this time I bought several and haven’t finished some of them yet. When I need a boost of happiness I go to them and keep reading. It only takes a few minutes but it works wonders!
Finally, perhaps the one I should have mentioned first, seek help. Talk to people like me, Logan Lindabury, who help you find happiness in your life. Or, if you do not like me then talk to someone else who does something similar. But, you’ve only just met me so how can you already dislike me? Well, it could happen.
Anyway, do what works for you. Find your happiness in ways that make you happy; not ways that make someone else happy. It may take a little time, but it is possible. And if you need help there are people that’d love to help you. Remember that.
