Sitting in the nursing office right now...

A bunch of us are sitting here, studying, well, I am "studying"... anyways...
we take small breaks here and there and just talk about random things, and we got onto the subject of crying.

I was just saying that nothing makes me cry more than Colin. He is the only thing that makes me so upset and emotional that I will resort to crying. Ofcourse, my parents make me cry, and stress from school will make me cry, but anytime Colin and I are fighting... I JUST BAWL.

My friend Emma said that she read this article that did a study on which parts of the brain were affected by heartbreak. Apparently, heartbreak will affect the same part of the brain that processes intense pain - ex] getting a limb cut off, getting in a serious car crash, etc.
Family death, family stress, and any other emotionally wearing stress is associated directly with the limbic system and is processed as a feeling, but HEARTBREAK - that's the real killer right there.
Just thought I would share it with you.
