The reason why constant negative thoughts can have such a negative effect on not just your mind but your body as well is that it causes chronic stress. This stress upsets your hormonal balance, damages the immunes system, and depletes the brain of chemicals needed for happiness. Chronic stress can decrease lifespan.

For example, hostility, or anger, if poorly managed or repressed, can cause a slew of health problems, like high blood pressure, infections, digestive disorders, and cardiovascular disease.
