Conflict and Physical Pain
Those country songs about the pain of a broken heart might actually be backed up by science. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (also known as stress cardiomyopathy or "broken heart syndrome") is triggered by extreme and sudden emotional trauma or physical stress.
"Broken heart syndrome" typically causes severe pressure-like chest pain, similar to what someone would feel when having a heart attack.7
Research on social exclusion has revealed that the pain of loneliness and social rejection is processed by the same area of the brain that processes physical pain, which is why it can physically hurt to be rejected by a loved one.
Conflict between partners or within families can also lead to the condition. When you are repeatedly exposed to stress and conflict in a relationship, you might develop a heightened sensitivity to physical pain or even become numb to it.
