Does falling in love have the same effect as a drug?

A few years ago, researcher Lucy Brown, professor of neuroscience at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, used magnetic resonance imaging to study the brains of 17 young people who said they were "newly and madly in love." He observed that seeing the photo of the loved one activated the caudate nucleus and the ventral tegmentum, two brain areas linked to pleasure. And he found that the ventral tegmentum flooded the caudate nucleus with the hormone dopamine in the brain in love.
