"Love to me, not intimate, not a vegetable of a meal, it is a desire for immortality, he is tired of life hero dream."
Many people love this, I thought it came from Duras' "The Lover", in fact, the real author of this passage is Chen Danyan. This is the "love verse on" the fate of almost perfect metaphor for the fate of love - most people are eager to "love" this thing, but most people do not know where love comes from.
Love in the end is what? The original legend is love from the bottom of "heart." When tempted to love, travel sad. Songs that both see the gentleman, my heart is happy. Li Bai shook his head, Sauvignon Blanc, destroy the heart and liver. Dai Shulun added that the King died a little heart. A few hundred years more people died of heartbreak, the researchers said with a sigh, adrenaline and other hormones may indeed induce myocardial stunning, this heartbreak syndrome severe enough to be fatal.
Today, biologists and neuroscientists every minute can throw a stack of research, to prove that the brain create a variety of feelings, but people still love each other to form intentions that love. "Give you my heart" is the classic sweet, "Give me your brain" is like a zombie and related metaphor.
However, we have one hundred billion neurons in the brain, which is what some remember the lover's face, and what makes you a few dilated pupils, shallow breathing?
How to observe the activity of neurons? The past two decades the most commonly used is the "functional magnetic resonance imaging", referred to fMRI. After activation of neurons, first increase oxygen consumption, 5-8 seconds after blood flow and oxygen consumption will rise, but the increase in blood flow even more, so the "hard work of neurons" neighborhood will be higher than "doing nothing neurons" there are more "oxyhemoglobin" nearby. In a strong magnetic field, oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin have different magnetic properties, by identifying the "blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) signal" brain BOLD is very clear, the resolution can reach millimeter.
Sex researchers took fMRI to study the orgasm, as long as the two key points - one is subject must wear a mask, so as to stabilize the head accurately scans of brain activity, and the second is to find someone willing to sacrifice science subjects - let a person experience evokes the short term period, duration, peak period, and the dissipation of the refractory period is not difficult. Love this thing is more difficult, how to make a person in the short term from the "do not love feeling tired" to "feelingly"? The researchers got no history of drug and alcohol abuse, has no history of mental and neurological diseases and are the subjects of love, love to be a first scale (passionate love scale, PLS) to see if the score had reached "love, love, crazy love "- what psychologists really have scale - let him / her gaze name photo or video love. The results showed that, compared to the gaze of strangers, to see the patterns of brain activity when love really is somewhat different.
If your right hand clenched into a fist, in the past, shaped like a side view of the brain, the index finger is curled up "frontal" thumb is "temporal lobe" is back "parietal" from the direction of the tiger's mouth to see, with connected at the wrist is "occipital", which add up to four, is in charge of a variety of higher cognitive functions "cerebral cortex" human "rational" living on this. Staring love, some observation to understand here is responsible for "social cognition" zone of others will be activated to help us with their love, "minds think alike," In addition, some involving attention and self-expression of the higher-order brain regions It is also activated. In comparison, when the gaze is gay friends' photos, the results can not totally let us mobilize significant cognitive resources, brain Zhongseqingyou evident.
And in the palm of your fist position corresponding to the virtual grip, there are a variety of non-famous but extremely important brain structure, people's "sensibility" Thus many hair growth, such as audio-visual touch taste cortex was four input relay - thalamus ; more cortex associated with motion control center - basal dopamine reward pathway important component - the ventral tegmental area, the caudate nucleus and it sounds more "edge" is actually very common edge system, which contains memory to generate assistance hippocampus, amygdala and aroused attention stake buckle fear and other negative emotions back.
As long as we love to smile in the photo, it is sufficient to activate the euphoria associated with the dopamine reward pathway, as seen vodka alcoholics, cocaine addicts seen such sweetness let lovers infatuated with addiction, but also let them in various occasions big show of affection, completely ignoring the edge of people ready to burn their piles of matches. Hippocampus and memory-related activity also frequently make people love each other's every move will be engraved in mind. Anxiety and fear associated with the amygdala and the posterior cingulate were suppressed, so lovers become fearless ...... even on the screen at breakneck speed flash only loved the name will be enough to inspire these reactions, because the speed is too fast , subjects were actually unaware of what he saw, but without prejudice to their feelings of dopamine bring joy. In another experiment, the subjects of electric shock as long as holding the hand of a partner, would be sufficient to control blood pressure and relieve physical pain. Love even brain neurotrophic factor will increase, nutritional factors and further regulate the endocrine system, leading to sharp increase in adrenaline palmar heartbeat, increased production of sweet peace of mind oxytocin, vasopressin secretion intimate trust, reduce serotonin cause Chafanbusi. So love to change the brain, endocrine changes, the presence of physical and mental health ...... love endocrine changes, such as magic, such as spells, such as hypnosis - if you well, is sunny.
Love is power, love is understanding, love is addicted ...... in love, people get a sense of intimacy, safe haven, but also get a sense of belonging. Of course, in love like a drunken brain such as addiction, however, love how deep, how it hurts when you lose. When leaving the love, really sad but also beverages. Once the romance, and grief associated with the posterior cingulate cortex and amygdala-related fear, all become extremely active. There are video display, when confronted with social rejection and physical pain related brain regions will also be active, stomach pain and even up to the level of fracture. So they cry, lost dog barking far away, heartbroken people broke our hearts.
Abandon old habits is not easy, because the habit rooted in neural "shortcut", you do not need to ponder to be allocated numbers by heart, eyes closed, you can remember a thin once kissed face. However, all the love in the brain, memories are all connected, everything sparks in biochemical reactions. The brain, the old loop indelible, only shows frequently enough new stimulus is not strong enough. Memorable old love, new love, not only explain to you a new love or appreciative enough.
Like romance cure OCD treatment, has the wrong brain circuits need to be amended, it needs to balance chemical reactions disorder. Runny nose several times without experiencing withdrawal reactions, how to appreciate the true opposite of love is not hate, but indifference and dull. One day, when the old lovers meet again, your brain will be indifferent, you will no longer restless dopamine. When you meet a new lover, you can once again experience the beauty of love, hold hands, like a drunk, until the first white until decay.
