What people are saying
Discussions reveal a positive reception, emphasizing the scientific exploration of love as an addiction, with references to hormones like serotonin and dopamine, and mention of neuroimaging studies, illustrating both interest and potential impact on understanding human relationships and addiction treatments.
Most posts acknowledge the parallels between romantic love and addiction, showing general support for the publication’s ideas.
Posts exhibit high curiosity, referencing multiple studies, hormones, and neurochemical insights, indicating strong engagement with the topic.
Some discussions go beyond surface-level views, mentioning specific research methods and scientific terms, reflecting moderate to deep involvement.
The discourse suggests that the article influences perceptions of love and addiction, highlighting neurobiological underpinnings that could inform therapies.
Abstract in brief
- Romantic love shares many similarities with addiction, including symptoms like euphoria, craving, tolerance, dependence, withdrawal, and relapse.
- Brain scans show that intense romantic love activates reward areas in the brain, such as the dopaminergic ventral tegmental area, which are also involved in drug and behavioral addictions.
- Because romantic love can reduce drug craving and promote calm attachment, it suggests that positive, rewarding social experiences and long-term relationships might be useful in developing therapies for addiction.]

The early stage of intense romantic love shows many symptoms of addictions, including euphoria, craving, tolerance, emotional and physical dependence, withdrawal and relapse. Romantic love is a natural (and positive) addiction ❤️ @FrontiersIn https://t.co/XldcqVUbeD https://t.co/O0l3VrQ6cB

@Alex_invictus20 @BrandonMarlett We can detect an increase in certain circulating hormones & other chemicals when a person reports feelings of intense love. So we can at least show a correlation between the hormones & the feelings. https://t.co/3rpIQABcMv

@ZAlphagirl @GabiAstro @canope_72 Dans ma recherche j'ai croisé quelques papiers de recherche, et je confirme que j'aime pas la psychologie, trop fourre-tout à mon goût.
