For the second year in a row, Pornhub's Christmas ad is unexpectedly touching. In the ad, adult films are presented as an antidote to loneliness during the holidays.
Watching adult movies is really not a panacea that will cure all our ills. According to the research Annenberg Public Policy Center from 2014, the number of suicides increased during holidays just a media myth. Seasonal mood disorder or seasonal depression (SAD) is of course more common during the holidays, but rarely distinguish between true disorder and only the 'Grinch's' attitude towards holidays. Also Dana Foundation, which supports neurological research, confirms that the Christmas holiday can be a 'tipping point' for people who are prone to anxiety and depression throughout the year. "The holidays can be a time when the things that trigger depression—grief, strife, transitions—are abundant," adds Myrna Wiessman, an epidemiologist and psychiatrist at Given by the Alliance for Brain Initiatives.
