Dr Akhila Kumar Pan presented on the topics of love, creativity, and human happiness. Some key points included:
1. Love is a complex phenomenon that is difficult to define but involves emotions like attachment, commitment, intimacy, passion, and jealousy.
2. There are different types of love, including romantic love, maternal love, and eternal love. Romantic love was further broken down into types like eros (passionate love), ludus (game-playing love), and storge (friendship love).
3. The neurobiology of love was discussed, noting the brain areas involved like the insula, cingulate cortex, hippocampus, and nucleus accumbens which are part
Love is a complex range of emotions that can include affection, attachment, care, and pleasure. It can describe feelings for people, activities, ideas, or objects. Interpersonal love between people involves intimacy, commitment, and passion. Maintaining social connections through loving relationships is important for health and well-being.
1) The document discusses how teenagers think about love based on a survey of over 500 teenagers. The survey found that teenagers believe love cannot last forever and requires sexual intimacy. Most teenagers think they are capable of having multiple partners.
2) The document also summarizes various philosophical and psychological perspectives on love from thinkers like Plato, Socrates, Freud, and Lee. Freud believed love forms from childhood relationships with parents while Lee described different styles of love.
3) From a scientific perspective, the document discusses the three stages of falling in love - lust, attraction, and attachment - and the biological factors like hormones and neurotransmitters involved in each stage.
The document discusses how unconscious emotional baggage from childhood experiences shape attitudes and behaviors in intimate relationships. Unresolved issues are repeatedly projected onto new partners, resulting in dysfunctional patterns. As the "love bubble" bursts over time, repressed feelings can emerge and old wounds are unconsciously triggered in one another. To build healthy relationships, one must gain self-awareness of their own emotional conditioning and become conscious of how their needs, fears and reactions impact their partner.
The document discusses different perspectives on love from various authors. It explores the chemistry of falling in love, defining love, sustaining long-term relationships through intimacy, passion and commitment, and cross-cultural differences in views of romantic love and marriage. Stephen Levine identifies 9 nouns and 3 verbs to describe love and its stages throughout life. Staying in love requires competence, repairing problems, sharing inner selves, and putting partners' needs first through genuineness, overcoming narcissism, and negotiation.

I. Diagnosis:
Luisa is diagnosed with several mental disorders as a result of sexual abuse. These disorders are PTSD (Posttraumatic Stress Disorder), depressive disorder, and anxiety disorder.
II. Background/History
Luisa, 25 years old, housewife, illiterate, married, five living children, one dead (two pairs of twins), one granddaughter. Derived from the Unit of Psychiatry from Primary Care with diagnosis of chronic depression of 11 years of evolution, initiated in the last postpartum and associated by the patient to a surgical sterilization.
The document outlines different types of love, including romantic love, sexual love, pragmatic love, platonic love, companionship love, altruistic love, manic love, hostile love, and self-love. It concludes by stating that an ideal marriage incorporates experiencing all types of love everyday, and while not married one can still experience most types of love with different people.
The document discusses personality disorders as defined by the DSM-IV. It describes the 10 specific personality disorders: paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal, antisocial, borderline, histrionic, narcissistic, avoidant, dependent, and obsessive-compulsive. These disorders are characterized by inflexible personality traits that impair functioning and cause distress. The disorders are grouped into clusters based on shared characteristics of odd/eccentric, dramatic/erratic, or anxious behavior patterns. Personality disorders typically emerge in teens and have enduring and consistent symptoms.
Personality refers to enduring patterns of thinking, feeling and behaving that distinguish individuals. It involves physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual aspects. Personality can be assessed through projective or objective tests. Major approaches to studying personality include psychodynamic (focusing on unconscious processes), humanistic (focusing on self-actualization), and biological factors. Personality disorders are inflexible patterns that cause distress, with clusters including odd/eccentric, dramatic/erratic, and anxious/fearful types. Therapies include psychotherapy, behavior therapy, biological treatments like drugs, and electroconvulsive therapy.

Love is a complex human emotion with biological, psychological, and social components. Biologically, love involves chemical reactions in the brain that cause feelings of attraction, attachment, and pleasure. Psychologically, theories view love as involving intimacy, passion, commitment, and attachment styles. Culturally, different societies conceptualize stages of love. While love generally involves positive feelings, it can also involve pain through jealousy, addiction-like cravings, and other negative emotions when unreciprocated. Maintaining both passionate and compassionate forms of love provides the most fulfilling relationships.

QUARTER 2- Personal Development and Relationships.pptxGladysMaeCiscar
This document provides an overview of personal relationships including family relationships, friendships, and romantic relationships. It discusses key aspects of healthy relationships like mutual respect, compassion, empathy, understanding, acceptance, honesty, trust, good communication, consideration, compatibility, mutual enjoyment, personal integrity, and vulnerability. The document also covers different types of love according to ancient Greek philosophy including philia (affectionate love), pragma (enduring love), storge (familiar love), eros (romantic love), ludus (playful love), mania (obsessive love), philautia (self-love), and agape (selfless love). Finally, it discusses the 5 love languages according to relationship expert Gary Chapman: words
The document discusses different theories and definitions related to love, intimacy, and relationships. It defines key terms like love, passion, commitment, intimacy, and relationship. It also summarizes different theories of love, such as Sternberg's triangular theory of love based on intimacy, passion, and commitment. The document also discusses love as a human experience, social phenomenon, emotion, and neurobiological event. It outlines John Alan Lee's color wheel theory of different types of love like eros, storge, ludus, and combinations of these. Gary Chapman's five love languages are also summarized.
The document discusses various topics related to love, attraction, and intimate relationships. It defines different types of love, such as passionate love (infatuation), companionate love, and Lee's six styles of loving. It also discusses factors that influence who we fall in love with, such as proximity, similarity, reciprocity, and physical attractiveness from an evolutionary perspective. Additionally, it covers the neurochemical processes involved in attraction and falling in love, and distinguishes between authentic versus inauthentic love in relationships.
The Psychology of Love by Dr Kathrine Bejanyan Matt Kendall
The document discusses the psychology of love and relationships, noting that while romantic love served an evolutionary purpose in facilitating reproduction, it was not historically the basis for marriage and long-term relationships require more than just chemistry and passion to last. Modern ideals of marrying for love and finding a soulmate are unrealistic, and building a successful relationship takes understanding one's own beliefs, needs, and childhood experiences as well as actively maintaining intimacy, compatibility and commitment over time.
We analyse the concept of true love from different perspectives in this presentation, presenting a critical study of its existence and the reasons that contribute to its perceived absence. We'll look at the intricacies of human relationships, psychology, and societal forces that may call into question the idea of idealized, eternal love.
Among the highlights are:
The Evolution of Love: A look at how the concept of love has changed throughout history and across cultures.
The Science of Love: An investigation into the biological and psychological processes underlying love relationships and attachment.
Love and Compatibility: An in-depth examination of the roles of compatibility, chemistry, and communication in the formation of meaningful connections.
External Factors' Influence: Our conceptions of love are shaped by cultural expectations, media depictions, and personal experiences.
The Pursuit of Fulfilment: A discussion over whether true love exists as a static concept, but rather as a dynamic and evolving journey.
The document discusses six different styles of love identified by psychologists: Eros, Ludus, Storge, Mania, Pragma, and Agape.
Eros love is passionate and sexual, but fleeting. Ludus love is game-playing and non-committal. Storge love develops from long-term friendship. Mania love is obsessive and dependent. Pragma love is practical and compatible. Agape love is selfless, caring and forgiving.
Each style tends to correlate with certain personality traits and relationship behaviors. Positive matches between styles include Storge-Agape and Pragma-Agape, while negative matches include Mania-
Emotional affairs are romantic relationships without physical intimacy that involve emotional intimacy. They are more common than sexual affairs and can damage marriages by creating distance between spouses and deception. Limerence is an intense romantic desire or obsession for another person that involves intrusive thinking and fear of rejection. Love at first sight or love sickness describes the initial intense mental and physical symptoms people experience when falling in love. Obsessive love can become dangerous if unrequited.
This document discusses different types and definitions of love. It begins by introducing the group members who authored it. It then explores love as a drug, art, nature, animal, family, God, and intense feeling. The rest of the document discusses impersonal and interpersonal love. It outlines the ancient Greek types of love including eros, philia, storge, xenia, agape, ludus, pragma, and philautia. Finally, it discusses the psychological basis of love involving intimacy, commitment, and passion.
1. The document discusses Freud and Lacan's theories on love and how they distinguish between different types of love like narcissistic love, anaclitic love, and transference love.
2. Freud believed neurotics were susceptible to transference love in analysis but not genuine love. Transference love involves projecting emotions from early childhood onto the analyst.
3. Freud differentiated between narcissistic love based on similarities to oneself and anaclitic love based on similarities to parental figures from childhood. Failures in relationships can occur due to misrecognizing which form of love is operating.
Psychologis Robert Sternberg planned a three-sided hypothesis of Adoration and contended that affection has three unique parts: Intimacy,Commitment and Passion.Intimacy is a structure where two individuals share confidences and different subtleties of their own lives, and is generally displayed in fellowships and heartfelt love affairs.Commitment then again is the assumption that the relationship is extremely durable, and the last type of affection is physical allure and passion.Passionate love is displayed in fixation as well as heartfelt love. All types of affection are seen as shifting blends of these three parts. Non-love does exclude any of these parts. Preferring just incorporates closeness. Charmed love just incorporates energy. Void love just incorporates responsibility. Heartfelt love incorporates both closeness and enthusiasm. Companionate love incorporates closeness and responsibility. Inane love incorporates energy and responsibility. In conclusion, perfect love incorporates every one of the three parts.
American clinician Zick Rubin tried to characterize love by psychometrics during the 1970s. His work expresses that three variables comprise love: connection, mindful, and closeness.
Clinician Erich Fromm kept up with in his book The Craft of Cherishing that adoration isn't simply an inclination but on the other hand is activities, and that as a matter of fact, the "feeling" of adoration is shallow in contrast with one's obligation to cherish through a progression of adoring activities over the long run. In this sense, Fromm held that affection is eventually not an inclination by any means, yet rather is a pledge to, and adherence to, cherishing activities towards another, oneself, or numerous others, over a supported span. Fromm likewise depicted love as a cognizant decision that in its beginning phases could start as a compulsory inclination, however which afterward no longer relies upon those sentiments, yet rather relies just upon cognizant responsibility.
Surely love is affected by chemicals (like oxytocin), neurotrophins (like NGF), and pheromones, and what individuals think and act in adoration is meant for by their originations of adoration. The ordinary view in science is that there are two significant drives in adoration: physical allure and connection. Connection between grown-ups is attempted to deal with the very rules that lead a newborn child to become appended to its mom. The customary mental view views love similar to a mix of companionate love and enthusiastic love. Energetic love is deep yearning, and is many times joined by physiological excitement (windedness, fast pulse); companionate love is warmth and a sensation of closeness not joined by physiological excitement.
In her book, Why We Love: The Nature and Science of Heartfelt Love, Helen Fischer - - - an American Anthropologist, human conduct researcher, and driving Master on science of adoration and attraction. She recommended that mankind has developed t
The documents discuss different perspectives on the concept of love from various experts.
The physicist views love as a neurological condition driven by chemical reactions in the brain. The psychotherapist notes the ancient Greeks distinguished between different kinds of love like friendship, passion, and self-love. The philosopher asserts love is a passionate commitment that must be nurtured. The romantic novelist believes love drives compelling stories by creating obstacles between people and their object of love. The nun describes love as both freely given yet binding people together stronger than death.
Love can be defined as a strong feeling of deep affection or romantic attachment. It is often contrasted with hate or lust and can refer to different types of love like familial love or platonic love between friends. Love is difficult to define due to its diversity of meanings and complexity as an emotion. However, love plays a major role in facilitating relationships and is a common theme in art due to its central importance to human psychology.
Why do we fall in love? This is a question that has been asked throughout history, and one that still baffles us today. There are many theories out there about why we fall in love, but the truth is, we may never really know for sure. All we can do is enjoy the ride and hope that it lasts.
The document discusses different types and aspects of love. It defines passionate love as intense feelings including sexual desire and physiological arousal that typically develops rapidly but can fade quickly. Companionate love is described as a deeper attachment based on familiarity and commitment that is less intense but more enduring. The document also references Sternberg's triangular theory of love, which identifies three components - intimacy, passion, and commitment - that combine in varying degrees to define different types of love experiences. It explores factors that can bring people together and keep them together, like proximity, shared interests and values, physical attractiveness, and attachment styles formed in childhood.

This document summarizes research on interpersonal attraction and the formation of relationships. It discusses internal and external factors that determine attraction, such as proximity, familiarity, physical attractiveness, and similarity. It also examines theories of love, including Sternberg's triangle theory of love consisting of passion, intimacy, and commitment. The document outlines different types of love like passionate love, companionate love, and romantic love. It concludes by describing styles of loving like pragma, mania, agape, eros, ludus, and storge.

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

2. Love??
What an interesting phenomenon love is!
Almost everybody can relate to a state of
“being or falling in love” even though it is
difficult to define love.
3. What is love?
Attachment, commitment,
intimacy, passion, grief upon
separation, and jealousy are
but a few of the emotionally-
loaded terms used to describe
that which love represents
5. TYPES OF ROMANTIC LOVE
Primary Type
EROS (passionate love)
LUDUS (game-playing love)
STORGE (friendship love)
Secondary Type
PRAGMA (practical love)
MANIA (possessive, dependent
love)
AGAPE (altruistic love)
Tertiary Type (Mixed of above
two)
Journal of Personal and Social Relationships, 15, 147-159.
6. EROS(PASSIONATE LOVE)
Feels strong physical and emotional
connection through the relationship
Begins with a partner who is a stranger
and evokes immediate excitement
May be exclusive but not possessive
Seeks early sexual adventure, variety
and technique
Is ready for love and its risks
7. Erotic lovers choose their lovers by intuition or
"chemistry." They are more likely to say they fell in
love at first sight than those of other love styles.
Erotic lovers view marriage as an extended
honeymoon, and sex as the ultimate aesthetic
experience. They tend to address their lovers with
pet names, such as "sweetie" or "sexy’’.
The erotic lover wants to share everything with and
know everything about their loved one, and often
thinks of their partner in an idealized manner.

8. LUDUS
Ludus, meaning "game" in Latin, is used by
those who see love as a desiring to want
to have fun with each other
Ludic lovers want to have as much fun as
possible. When they are not seeking a
stable relationship, they rarely or never
become overly involved with one partner
and often can have more than one partner
at a time.
They don't reveal their true thoughts and
feelings to their partner, especially if they
think they can gain some kind of
advantage over their partner.

9. STORGE
Storge grows slowly
out of friendship and
is based more on
similar interests and a
commitment to one
another rather than
01
Storge is familial love.
There is a love between
siblings, spouses,
cousins, parents and
children. Storge
necessitates certain
familial loyalties,
02
Is not looking for love
but is ready if
encountered
Quietly possessive but
not overly jealous
Believes love comes
friendship but not a goal
03
10. MANIA
Anxious about falling in love and
has expectations of pain
Quickly becomes overwhelmed
by thoughts of their partner
Forces partner into showing
affection and emotion
Is easily frustrated and does not
enjoy sexual intimacy
Is very possessive and jealous
The back benchers loves most
beautiful girl of the class
11. PRAGMATIC
Pragmatic lovers have a notion of being of service
which they perceive to be rational and realistic.
They tend to select and reject partners
accordingly based on what they perceive
desirable, compatible traits.
Pragmatic lovers want to find value in their
partners, and ultimately want to work with their
partner to reach a common goal.
Begins a relationship with an already familiar
person
Believes a loving relationship is desirable for a
happy life
Expects reciprocation of feelings.
ARRANGED MARRIAGE
12. AGAPE
The purest form of love, derives its definition of
love from being altruistic towards one's partner
and feeling love in the acts of doing so.
The person is willing to endure difficulty that arises
from the partner's circumstance.
It is based on an unbreakable commitment and
an unconditional, selfless love, that is all giving.
It is an undying love that is full of compassion and
selflessness.
Agape love is often referenced with religious
meaning

15. DEFINITION OF ROMANTIC LOVE
Romantic love is a complex emotion that includes, and
cannot be easily separated from, other impulses such as
physical desire and lust, although the latter can be loveless
and therefore distinguishable from the sentiment of romantic
love.
18. BRIEF OUTLINE OF THE
NEUROCHEMISTRY OF
LOVE
• The areas that are involved
• The medial insula,
• Anterior cingulate,
• Hippocampus
• Nucleus accumbens, which together
constitute core regions of the reward system
• The passion of love creates feelings of
exhilaration and euphoria, of a happiness that
is often unbearable and certainly
indescribable.
19.
20. NEUROCHEMISTRY OF
LOVE
Areas that are activated in response to romantic
feelings are largely contain high concentrations
of dopamine,associated with reward, desire,
addiction and euphoric states.
Like two other modulators that are linked
to romantic love, oxytocin and
vasopressin, dopamine is released by the
hypothalamus, a link between the nervous
and endocrine systems
These same regions become active when exogenous opioid
drugs such as cocaine, which themselves induce states of
euphoria, are ingested. Release of dopamine puts one in a
‘‘feel good’’ state, and dopamine seems to be intimately
linked not only to the formation of relationships but also to
sex, which consequently comes to be regarded as a rewarding
and
21. NEUROCHEMISTRY
OF LOVE
An increase in dopamine is coupled to a decrease in
another neuro-modulator, serotonin which is linked to
appetite and mood.
Studies have shown a depletion of serotonin in early
stages of romantic love to levels that are common in
patients with obsessive-compulsive disorders.
Love, after all, is a kind of obsession and in its early
stages commonly immobilizes thought and channels
it in the direction of a single individual.
The early stages of romantic love seem to correlate as
well with another substance, nerve growth factor,
which has been found to be elevated in those who
have recently fallen in love compared to those who
are not in love or who have stable, long- lasting,
relationships.
Moreover, the concentration of nerve growth factor
appears to correlate significantly with the intensity of
romantic feelings.
23. FACTS:
Why Dhritarasthra did not identify any fault of Duryodhan?
Who is given importance Yashoda or Devaki as Krishna’s
Mother?
Why one mother can not love equally to other’s children?
24. BRAIN CONCEPTS
OF MATERNAL &
ROMANTIC LOVE
Hypothalamus not activated
Oxytocin more produced
Suspension of judgement as
like romantic love
26. LOVE AND BEAUTY
A beautiful person, as is
commonly known, is
perhaps the surest way of
evoking the sentiment of
love. Throughout history,
from the days of Plato
onwards, the path to love
has been described as
being through beauty
27. LOVE AND BEAUTY
The Lord Krishna ‘‘steals the mind’’ with his beauty
Majnun, in his love for Leila, is obsessed by her beauty, even if she does not seem beautiful to
others. ‘‘To see her beauty’’, he declares, ‘‘you must borrow my eyes’’.
Beauty and love are themselves never far from erotic desire, since the most intense love is strongly
coupled to sexual desire and the two faculties share common areas in the brain.
It is not surprising to find therefore that an attractive face and sexual arousal, as well as the
experience of visual beauty, engage a part of the brain known as the orbito- frontal cortex.
30. LA, also called pathological love, can be defined as a pattern of behavior characterized
by a maladaptive, pervasive and excessive interest towards one or more romantic
partners, resulting in lack of control, the renounce of other interests and behaviors, and
other negative consequences
Although its prevalence in the U.S. population is estimated at around 3%, studies
addressing specific populations, such as young college students, point to rates as high
as 25%
LOVE ADDICTION
31. current evidence suggests that LA may correspond to an independent
disorder, with features distinct from the regular ‘‘falling in love’’ experience
According to this approach, in addition to the elevated degree of
psychological suffering and functional impact associated with LA, that
condition would contrast with ‘‘normal’’ love due to other features such as its
lack of control, its pervasive nature, and its negative life consequences.
32. LA CAN BE CHARACTERIZED :
a behavioral addiction, which would share several hall mark criteria with
classic substance dependence.
LA symptoms such as decrease in the SOCIAL AND OCCUPATIONAL
interests due to excessive involvement with the romantic partner (with
reduction or abandonment of social, occupational or recreational
activities), lack of control regarding the time spent in activities directly or
indirectly related to the partner, persistent
33. It is observed that the initial stages of any romantic relationship would
generate feeling of well-being, reward, and satisfaction.
However, as the relationship progresses, a true dependence towards the
partner (who becomes essential for the maintenance of the patient’s
psychological equilibrium) is developed.
The loss of (or perspective of losing) the partner is associated with
important anxiety, depressive symptoms, and despair.
34. REJECTED ROMANTIC LOVER
When faced with the loss of the partner, these patients can either persist in trying to
reinstate the relationship or quickly shift their focus to a new partner, replacing their
source of dependence and perpetuating the dysfunctional relationship pattern.
35. Functional MRI studies suggest that romantic passion is associ-
ated with activation of areas belonging to the brain reward system,
such as the ventral tegmental area, the striatum, the orbitofrontal
cortex, and the cingulate cortex. Individuals rejected by their
romantic partners displayed hyperactivation of the nucleus
accumbens, an area known to be hyperactive during cocaine
craving.
36. IMPULSE-CONTROL DISORDER.
This model emphasizes the characterization of LA as an impulse control
disorder.
Patients with LA were found to have elevated rates of trait impulsivity
(measured by the Barratt Impulsivity Scale) when compared to controls.
The same study found higher rates of novelty seeking among patients with
LA.
Novelty seeking is strongly associated with impulse control disorders, such as
pathological gambling and compulsive buying
37. OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE SPECTRUM:
In addition to irresistible impulses related to engage in behaviors that could
lead to a romantic involvement, patients with LA may also describe a certain
degree of thought intrusiveness in regard to their involvement and concern
about the supposed partner, despite sometimes the explicit lack of interest on
the partner’s side (morbid infatuation).
38. MOOD DISORDERS SPECTRUM
In one study, adolescents in early stage romantic love were found to have
hypomania checklist scores similar to outpatients suffering from bipolar II
disorder.
The authors hypothesize that some developmental experiences inherent to
adolescence, such as intense romantic love, can produce transient hypomanic-like
periods.
Although the study in question analyzed romantic experiences characterized as
‘‘non-pathological’’, it can be hypothesized that mechanisms related to mood
instability may be involved in LA.
39. LOVE-RELATED DYSFUNCTIONAL BEHAVIORS
as part of a broader spectrum of psychopathological findings, such as manic
states and primary psychotic disorders. For example, in the case of manic
states, an excessive interest in establishing a romantic relationship can
sometimes be observed, but usually subsides once the mood symptoms
improve.
personality disorders, such as borderline and dependent personality disorders
often display patterns highly suggestive of LA, but those are not usually
restricted to the romantic sphere, affecting their relationships as a whole, as
well as other areas of their functioning.
40. TREATMENT
Psychosocial interventions
SELF HELP GROUP
Cognitive-behavioral therapy
It has been advocated that the best results in the treatment of LA are achieved through the use
of rational self-counseling.
Improvements in self-communication, as well as interventions aiming at enhancing the
separation between feeling and facts related to the loss are some of the possible
interventions that may be of benefit for patients with LA.
41. PHARMACOLOGICAL THERAPY
No scientific data is available in regard to the efficacy and safety of
pharmacological agents in the treatment of LA
The phenomenological similarity between obsessive- compulsive disorder (OCD)
and some cases of LA suggests that antidepressants, especially selective serotonin
reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) could be of potential benefit in the treatment of these
patients
Normal subjects who recently fell in love were found to have decreased density of
the platelet serotonin transporter, similarly to patients with OCD but significantly
lower than controls
42. SSRIs seem to decrease the dopaminergic transmission at the
ventral tegmental area, one of the key areas involved with reward
and motivation.
This could bring about decreases in the feelings of romantic love
and less excitement associated with romantic relationships
43. Prairie voles, which show a higher number of
vasopressin receptor 1a in the amygdala and
ventral pallidum, show more monogamous
behavior
when compared to mountain voles, which usually
have multiple partners.
Genetically engineered procedures aiming at
increasing the expression of the vasopressin
receptor 1a gene have been shown to make them
monogamous
45. GENETIC LOADING ON HUMAN LOVING STYLES.
DRD2 TaqI A genotypes and "Eros"
(a loving style characterized by a
tendency to develop intense
emotional experiences based on
physical attraction to the partner)
C516T 5HT2A polymorphism and
"Mania" (a possessive and
dependent romantic attachment,
characterized by self-defeating
emotions).
46. ETERNAL LOVE
I am He whom I love ,
and He whom I love is I
We are two spirits
dwelling in one body
47. THANK YOU
Throughout history, people have
been fascinated and mystified by
love. Poets have tried to articulate
it and researchers have tried to
investigate it. Whilst love can be
one of the life's most satisfying
events, it also has the power to
cause immense pain and
heartbreak. When love becomes
addiction it may become
pathological
