The appropriate response might be "That sounds awful, what are you going to do about it?" This puts responsibility back on the shoulders of the complainant and leaves the door open for 'empathy'.Įmpathy vs Sympathy.one gives energy, the other takes.

Besides behaving as a pain reducer, endorphins are also thought to be connected to euphoric feelings, appetite modulation, and the release of sex hormones. They reasoned that these receptors probably existed because the body itself had natural painkilling compounds that also bonded to those receptors. Scientists had suspected that analgesic opiates, such as morphine and heroin, worked effectively against pain because the body had receptors that were activated by such drugs. There are three major types of endorphins: beta-endorphins are found almost entirely in the pituitary gland, while enkephalins and dynorphins are both distributed throughout the nervous system.
