How much money is LOVE worth?

I thought the drug companies had love all figured out, fill up on dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin and you'll walk around with hearts in your eyes. If I was a chemist like in the movies, I would cook up a batch of love by adding in about the same amount of dopamine found in pple with schizophrenia, equal amount of serotonin found in happy peeps or maybe brains that have been blessed with good maryjane, and the apparently secret ingredient, a handful of oxytocin. Oh and now, I guess you need this vasopressin hormone, seems like a good bro if its receptors help with the re-uptake of Oxytocin. Maybe it could help with other deficiencies in the brain associated with pple with autism and stuff. But autism seems cool when you see amazing austics with these incredible abilities that boggle the mind.

Unfortunately, these drugs don't have the same effect when taked externally. Vasopressin's used for several things medically in the US and available as an Rx or off-label import... I've seen oxytocin, but I doubt it's a true biosimilar, so dunno on that one. Neither will make you fall in love or love 'better' or anything like that.

The funny thing is that nobody really knows how these things work in the body, which is why all the anti-depressants say their "mechanism of action is unknown" in the fine print. (Kinda scary, but they're profitable, so it's FDA-okay )
