Plato said that 'love is a grave mental disease' and, if you've ever been in love you would probably agree with him. Isn't falling in love like going to war without any armour? Isn't it like throwing a newborn kitten to the wolves?
Love is a serious “mental” disease means that it can consume the mind so much that it becomes a major problem, like a mental disease. I know firsthand that this is true.
I am going through a very intense breakup at the moment.
I have gone from feeling physical and emotional pain to the point I think I will die.
I am stuck pining for him and wish I can turn back the hands of time.
I never expected somebody to have such an effect on me.
You feel a high that is like walking on the clouds when you are in love due to the rush of euphoria.
But when you get your heart broken by love you feel like a stack of bricks came tumbling down upon you.
Love really does mess with you mentally and physically and I do feel it mimics mental disease.
I have never felt true love until I met this person so I am experiencing these emotions for the first time.
Guard your heart and keep it safe so you do not have to feel the pain.
If you do fall in love be sure whoever catches you will be a keeper.
