It appeared that the pressure that was exerted on this organ caused by continual emotional downs and ups of stress had caused this muscle to stretch over and beyond its usual capacity in order to return to normal.

The Link Between Reduced Heart Rate And Depression

Another study has found a link between heart health that is impaired and depression. Researchers from Emory University, Atlanta, Ga and Yale University in New Haven, Conn, recently conducted a study on male twins (50 pairs) where they hooked each participant up to an electrocardiogram for a period of 24 hours.

They went onto conclude there is a link that exists between a reduction in HRV (heart rate variability) and depression or fluctuations between the heartbeats.
