The document discusses love addiction in women. It describes how women are socialized from a young age through fairy tales and media to seek romantic love. Love addiction develops as an attempt to heal past emotional trauma, but becomes an obsessive cycle of intense passion turning quickly to destruction. Love addicts experience low self-esteem and make themselves completely reliant on relationships for identity and worth. Their love relationships are characterized by chaos, high-risk behaviors, and desperation to avoid abandonment at all costs.

They may also concentrate on Grandiose fantasies (e.g. their own success, beauty, brilliance) and May be convinced that they deserve special treatment.
When faced with a problem you can stay miserable, tolerate the distress, change how you think and feel about the problem or change the situation. Distress Tolerance Skills help you tolerate unpleasant feelings until you can think clearly and make the best choice to keep you moving toward your goals.

Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Love Addiction
1. Women and Love Addiction
Cynthia Vela
A-PSYC 4349

2. What is love?
As an abstract concept, love usually
refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of
tenderly caring for another person.
In the U.S.:
•Little girls are taught to dream of finding “the one” that will make her life
complete.
•Love stories-love at first sight, “Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella”, and
tragic love stories where one is willing to die for their love-”Romeo and Juliet”.
•Love songs.
•A little girl grows and is then bombarded with romance novels and more love
songs. She has been taught to search for an ideal, fictional, perfect man.
3. Love gone wrong
What is love addiction?
Love addiction is a destructive behavioral pattern
that leads to unhealthy and harmful relationships. It is
when one person loves another with compulsive intensity and in
ways that are not in the best interest of either person.
It is a:
•Search for love to fill a void.
•Search that turns into an obsession to find love that does not hurt, disappoint, or
reject.
•It turns into a reliance on an idea to try and heal past emotional trauma,
fulfill loneliness, and maintain balance.
•A woman in love with the idea of love or to the fantasy of romance.
•The high experienced during the first stages of romance is what become the drug
for the love addicted.
•This addiction is an emotional and painful chaos that turns into a vicious
cycle causing the addict to never develop real relationships of depth
and meaning.
4. •Low self esteem. They expect their partner to give constant,
unconditional love in order to relieve the pain of extremely low self
esteem.
•Feel worthless when not in a relationship-believe that a relationship
makes them whole.
•Suffer with other co-occurring disorders: depression, bipolar
disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, ADD, ADHD, addiction,
post traumatic disorder, and dysthymia.
•Have an intense need to control, please others, or both.
•Give an unordinary amount of time and attention to their partner-
bordering on obsession.
•Have a driving, desperate, frantic personality.
•Need drama.
5. •Confuse sexual attraction with “love at first sight”.
•Confuse intensity with intimacy.
•Relationships start with intense passion then end quickly.
•High risk behavior-becomes sexually or emotionally attached
without taking the time to get to know a person.
•Trade sex for love.
• Avoid fear, rejection, and abandonment at all costs. Will tolerate
anything to avoid being left-such as all forms of abuse and abuse
of children.

6. 1. Attraction
2. Anxious
3. Obsessive
4. Destructive
5. PAIN-abnormal state of mind
takes over and they become
powerless over their own
behavior. It is in this altered state
of consciousness that the love
addict will put everything on the
line in the name of love. Some
love addicts in this condition will
even break the law despite all
the risks involved. Can lead to
stalking, rape, self inflicted harm,
physical abuse, suicide, murder
and other crimes of passion!

8. Love addicts are born into dysfunctional families
and suffer from some type of trauma.
•A mother whom was unloving and depriving in
infancy up to 7 years of age.
•Parent/s that suffered from alcohol or chemical
addiction.
•Physical abuse.
•Emotional abuse.
•Sexual abuse
•These are people that suffered at the hands of
those (parents) that were supposed to love and
protect them.
9. 1. Addictive disorder must be brought under control.
2. Cognitive therapy helps to identify addictive triggers.
3. Anti- depressants prescribed. If they are not already
suffering from depression they will be after working on
family of origin issues.
4. Work on family of origin issues – which is the root of the
problem.
5. 12 Step Program such as LAA or Love Addicts Anonymous.
6. Relapse Prevention. This last step is devoted to resolving
whatever residual problems there are in the client’s
establishing a primary, healthy, love relationship. The
client will learn how to build and have a healthy
relationship.
