Love or Neurochemical Addiction?

โฃ You canโt eat, you canโt sleep, and all you can think about is your ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐น๐ต ๐ง๐ช๐น.โฃ โฃ Our search for love and approval stems from a fundamental human desire to avoid self rejection. โฃ โฃ ๐ช๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ฏ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฎ๐น ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐ผ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ต๐๐บ๐ฎ๐ป๐. โฃ โฃ It's innate but can cross over into ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ฎ๐ฃ๐ง๐ถ๐ค๐ฌ๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ quicklike. You know that never ending search for the Cinderella love story that doesn't exist. โฃ โฃ That right there is how an addiction to love manifests. We will do anything to get that hit, just like a strung out junkie. We will go to great lengths and make unspeakable sacrifices to get that approval and feel the safety of a relationship. We put up with insanity from ourselves and our lover. โฃ

โฃLove is a drug at a neurochemical level, being ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ด๐ถ๐ณ๐จ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ, ๐ด๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ต๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฏ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฐ๐น๐บ๐ต๐ฐ๐ค๐ช๐ฏ. Itโs an amazing feeling, but it can also be a double-sided one. Why? Because that love can trap you into unhealthy relationships.โฃ โฃ Love can make you do stupid shit to maintain that high. Separation and doing what is truly needed for your growth and happiness feels horrible as you go through withdrawal from the ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ถ๐จ.โฃ
During this period of withdrawal, doing regular exercise, being patient (time heals all wounds), and talking to close friends can help balance your mood state and make coping with the love withdrawal much easier.โฃ
