The Psychology of Black Humour
Having just come through a rough couple of years (Cancer - breast and kidney for my wife and almost simultaneous redundancy for me) when we made extensive use of black humour as a coping mechanism I wondered if there had been any clinical studies done into it and how and indeed if it really does help. We certainly believe it helped us keep positive and not seeing ourselves as "victims".
No particular reason for the query - just curiosity. Thanks for any thoughts. g45 |
YES
Black humour is the light at the end of the tunnel.
More importantly, in every profession that is concerned with major trauma has its own way of dealing with the stress, and black humour is it. glf |

Have a chat to the lads in Headley Court, they are masters in the craft:)

Black Humour is not for the sensitive soul but it's used extensively in the Services and medical profession. Certainly helps one face the unthinkable
