A Breakup

Over time, poets and musicians have tried to describe the pain that one feels a broken heart.

Although many have been found in verse or song, here that pain could be explained scientifically.

Researchers were able to demonstrate that the condition that you have after a breakup is more than a simple emotional response.

Experiments have shown that separation from loved working parts of the brain often associated with physical pain , for example, what you feel after you burn. In other words, a broken heart really hurts .

The experiment was done on 40 men and women who have beenabandoned , contrary to their wishes. Everyone said that experience made ​​them suffer terribly.

Their brains were scanned while they viewed various pictures. When looking at a picture of former / former boyfriend / A sensation was similar to the feeling of a hot iron on the skin . Gadurile about the breakup hurt him in the same way, maybe even worse.

Further analysis showed that the same brain area is activated when processing two types of pain. The results give a new meaning the word “ suffer . “ On the surface, to pour hot coffee on yourself and think about how you feel rejected when you look a picture of your loved each show two different types of pain. These, however, are more like structures than they might think.

Other studies have so desire to return with the person who has rejected. Scans on the brains of women and men have shown thatpain you feel is similar to that felt by those who quit drugs . The danger of returning to old habits will always be active.

However, there is hope for those suffering from love. As more days pass breakup, the less brain activity is felt in areas that stimulatesemotional attachment . Full back up to separation , pain , literally.
