Blog Post #4 Psychotic Love

Your brain when you're in love is almost the equivalent to your brain on drugs. Now, before I go any further I want to make it clear that this could relate to only some people. I know that every relationship is different, however I find the one I am about to talk about most interesting. For many, when you are in love, you never know what you are going to say to do. Many believe that love is just an idea, and yes it is. With that being said, this "small idea" that people may have can cause the individual to experience a wide range of emotions and feelings. Love can be shown in many different ways and forms across the nation. This universal sign of love makes everyone a little psychotic, too. Whether you are in love with another person or a TV show or an object, you'll do anything to get a fix of it. Like drugs, it causes so many people to become delusional and crazy, making it seem like the only other thing or person in the world is them. In addition, when the relationship is broken, it can have the same effect as breaking a bad drug habit. Going through withdraw when on drugs is very similar to going through grief when breaking up with someone very close to you.

In the end, however, this shows that everyone is a little psychotic in their own ways, they just need to find the thing to push them off the edge, whether it be fatal substances or a long life partner.
