Myth: A major crisis drains happiness more so than everyday annoyances.

传说：大危机似乎比日程琐事更容易减少幸福

Science says: Although most of us believe that significant events, such as a car accident or a job layoff, can affect your happiness more than daily hassles, it turns out that the mundane has a bigger impact. Researchers say this is because we’re extremely motivated to reach out to our community when we are coping with crises, but we don’t seek social support for little things, like a kid’s temper tantrum or a terrible commute.

科学发现：我们大部分人都认为大事情，比如车祸或是失业会比日常琐事更容易影响你的幸福感，但实际上琐事影响才更大。研究者发现在处理危机时，我们总是积极寻求身边人的帮助，但一些琐事，比如小孩突然发脾气或是糟糕的交通则往往不需要动用我们的社会支持。
