Can you die from a lonely heart?

Answer 1

Its means literally that; your heart is broken by extreme sadness, and you die.It used to be thought that the person was simply too sad to function properly and they really did not die of a broken heart. However, more recent science has shown there are physiological changes that come with a "broken heart" than can cause physical death.

When a person endures sudden shock or extreme stress, the adrenal glands release adrenaline. That provides an extra boost of energy and chemicals that temporarily mask physical pain. This enables the "fight or flight" reflex so a person under attack will be essentially turbo-charged for a short period of time. Usually, releases of adrenaline are short-term; the threat passes, and the person calms down and things return to normal.

The problem is that grief, such as that caused by the loss of a loved one, can result in a prolonged release of adrenaline, which causes damage to the heart. Many doctors and scientists now think that this prolonged release of adrenaline and the damage to the heart is causes can lead to heart failure, especially in older persons, who are then said to have "died of a broken heart."

Answer 2

Probably not. If you're sick and/or old it might be possible for you to give up your will to live due to a broken heart, but I don't think you'll actually die. You'll survive this

Regardless of what you believe, check out Psalm 34:18, and hopefully it will comfort you.

When you've been hurt badly, it's normal to feel as if the world has ended. This is called "grief" and is felt any time you've had a really tough blow -- from something horrible like someone dying all the way to a friend betraying you. Everyone feels this emotion during these times, so your feelings are right where they should be. You're going to be miserable for awhile until your heart can heal from the blow. Try to hang in there and wait for this to happen -- and it will, everyone can assure you that it just takes time. This doesn't really help right now, though, does it?

Here are some things that can help you to feel better now:

• Make a list of "pros" and "cons" for the outcome of your tragedy. For example, if someone you loved has left you, write down the good things (pros) and the bad things (cons) about them leaving -- you might find some unexpected reasons why you will be happier without them!
• Think logically! Use the word "REALISTICALLY" to make up some logical statements about this tough time. For example, "REALISTICALLY, I do feel miserable, but I know that I am not going to really die just from feeling this way" or "REALISTICALLY, people do date many, many other people before they settle on the one they can absolutely live with for the rest of their life, so I can go find someone else that might be a better fit for me."
• Get out of the house. Don't just sit around moping -- MAKE yourself go do things that you know you will enjoy once you get moving (and yes, you might have to get tough and force yourself, because your miserable feelings want you to stay in and feel sorry for yourself some more). Just getting some exercise will boost your mood -- there are chemicals called endorphins which give you a natural good feeling when you exercise.
• Talk about it. I'm not saying to go over and over and over it -- people do get tired of hearing complaints without any sign that the person is trying to move on with their lives. I am saying to talk things over once or twice with a trusted friend or a professional therapist if you're really struggling -- ask them for advice on how to cope and really listen to their suggestions and try them out.
• Remind yourself that this is not permanent. Post some stick notes around your room. Make a cartoon and stick it in your locker. Use his photo as a dartboard. Do whatever it takes to remind yourself that the world is moving forward, and time is passing. You're going to feel better every day and pretty soon, you'll be back to your old self.

Yes, you're always going to have this sad memory, but one day it will be just a memory and it won't hurt so much! I promise.
