When i feel bad, in order to get a sense of emotional comfort, sometimes what i'll do is like, lean on some one else to provide that for me. Some people engage in even emotionally manipulative tactics to feel love. So the keypoint here is that those underlying emotions that you're using to cope, you can get rid of the coping mechanism. When you get rid of your coping mechanism, you may recalibrate your neurons after a periodof withdrawal. That's what neuro science will sort of tell us.
