Cari Barbour on 24 Feb 14"Recent brain studies show extensive parallels between the effects of certain addictive drugs and experiences of being in love. Both activate the brain's reward system, can overwhelm us so that we forget about other things and can inspire withdrawal when they are no longer available. It seems it isn't just a cliché that love is like a drug: in terms of effects on the brain, they may be neurochemically equivalent."
