A certain syndrome is rampant among people all over the world.

• About the Syndrome

Name: Love Deprivation / Deficiency Syndrome A syndrome where the continuous receipt of love, interest, and the feeling of being needed from others is necessary for survival. Patients receive love from a specific person or group and recognize it as their foundation for survival.

However, symptoms manifest or worsen when the patient judges that love has been lost due to the disappearance of love, severance of relationships, bereavement, rejection, indifference, or the patient's own perception that "I am no longer loved."

It is influenced not only by whether love is actually lost but also by whether the person perceives it as "lost." Therefore, even if a partner still loves them, a patient may develop symptoms by convincing themselves they are "no longer loved." Symptoms worsen depending on the period during which love cannot be received.

Mild: Love "Deficiency"

Symptoms: Pale complexion, loss of appetite, sleep disorders, slight fever, fatigue, mild anemia, decreased concentration, etc.—similar to mild physical malaise.

Moderate: Fading interest in the world

Symptoms: Clear loss of skin color, drop in body temperature, chronic anemia, lightheadedness, decreased food intake, memory loss, impaired judgment, forgetting names or conversations, blurred sense of time, etc.—interfering with social life.

Severe: Losing the world itself (Sensory impairment)

Symptoms: Blurred vision, fading colors, inability to recognize faces, voices sounding distant, dulling of taste and smell, ambiguous sense of touch, etc.—all perception becomes impossible. Terminal Symptoms: Clouded consciousness, shallow breathing, heart rate abnormalities, drop in body temperature, loss of reaction to external stimuli, mental suffering due to a strong sense of loss and loneliness, etc.

Eventually, the ability to receive love itself is lost, and life support functions cease.

Also, in this world, there are many romantic and married (including same-sex) relationships due to the syndrome's influence, but some people turn to infidelity out of anxiety when relationships become stagnant.
