This is Your Brain on Love. Psychologist Dr. Sarah Sarkis Explain The Science and Influence of Love‪.‬ Swayed

What do passionate love and cocaine have in common and what is the difference between the way our brain responds in love versus hate? What is happening chemically when we are “falling in love” and why can we exist on almost no sleep and a piece of pizza for four days when experiencing passionate love? What can you do for yourself during betrayal – if anything? You can also hear me butcher the word “perseverating.” These topics and more with my friend Dr. Sarah Sarkis.
