HouseCall with Dr. Mac

It's the not so glamorous side of love, but we so need to talk about it. http://www.teachingdoctor.com/

"For better or for worse"; these are vows that you take when you walk down that isle to forever. In my opinion I believe that most of us don't ever want to experience the "for worse". But what happens when you do experience that earth shattering event that tests your "for better or for worse"? We have hypothesized that the chemistry that happens in the brain during the "falling in love" part of a relationship must happen in order to set a solid foundation that will be able to withstand the "for worse". SaMonna and Van Watts have a conversation with the HouseCall Community that supports that hypothesis. http://samonnawatts.com/

Some people say it was a spark; some say a jolt, some even say they felt the heavens open and heard angels singing. However you "fell in love", there was real brain chemistry in that look from across the room, those long talks, and HAVE MERCY, those HUGS!!!!!....Yes! Let's talk about those HUGS!

It's a brain disease. When we look at the disease of addiction with more depth than just a weakness in a person's moral make up, in my opinion, I believe that's when we'll get somewhere with the "war on drugs". It's a brain disease in which you become deficient in making the proper decisions with the choices that are placed in front of you and there is real neurochemistry behind it! Sit down with Mr. Thomas Moore, the Director of the Community Relations / Outreach at Amazing Love Health Services, LLC, and me as we talk about the science behind addiction.

"I just wanted to be cool." That's what he said. Now you or others you know may have just been trying to escape mental or emotional pain and that's how they ended up in the twisted relationship of addiction. However it started, it's an affair with a very jealous mistress. So how do you or someone you love break the addition cycle? What is really going on inside their heads? These are questions we start talking about this month in this new year of 2016. If it's going to be a truly new day, let's have some straight talk.
