Researchers at Syracuse University report that it only takes a fifth of a second for our brain to "fall in love". During this process, our brains experience emotions similar to those felt when using cocaine or other stimulants.
These researchers also found that of the 12 areas of the brain that are stimulated, each one responds to different kinds of love. Studying how these areas are stimulated can give mental health professionals more information on treating depression, anxiety and other negative emotions that occur when love is lost.
