"Love Addiction: Unveiling the Truth Behind Raquel Leviss, Bethenny Frankel, and 'Vanderpump Rules'"

"Vanderpump Rules" star Raquel Leviss, along with mental health experts, discusses the concept of love addiction. Although it is not officially recognized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, experts agree that love addiction is a legitimate phenomenon that can have destructive consequences. Love addiction is characterized by anxiety, fears of unworthiness and abandonment, and a craving for approval and intimacy. It can be exacerbated by inconsistent affection in relationships. Therapists recommend seeking professional help, joining support groups, understanding attachment styles, and allowing oneself to feel and confront emotions as part of the healing process.
