[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 2490, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.wxyz.com/news/national/many-dealing-with-skin-hunger-phenomenon-linked-to-lack-of-physical-contact'][B]Many dealing with ‘skin hunger,’ phenomenon linked to lack of physical contact - WXYZ[/B][/URL] There's a simple thing many of us having been missing during the pandemic that has a big impact on our health and well-being — hugs from our loved ones. A neuroscientist tells us many are dealing with what researchers call "skin hunger." It's a phenomenon where we can feel emotionally lost of something without physical contact. “And that which is missing is something that normally provides us with some contentment, some solace, some feeling that we're safe and that we're amongst others who we can rely on as a bio-behavioral resource,” said Emiliana Simon-Thomas, PhD, Science Director at the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.
