A paixão é uma das experiências humanas mais intensas e complexas, frequentemente associada a sentimentos de euforia, motivação e conexão profunda. No entanto, sua manifestação também pode estar ligada a desequilíbrios emocionais e ao surgimento de transtornos psiquiátricos. Esta revisão bibliográfica tem como objetivo investigar os mecanismos neurobiológicos e psicológicos que conectam a paixão ao desenvolvimento de patologias mentais, como depressão, transtornos de ansiedade, transtorno obsessivo-compulsivo, transtorno de estresse pós-traumático e transtornos aditivos. A análise dos estudos selecionados demonstra que a paixão está associada a alterações significativas em neurotransmissores como dopamina, serotonina, norepinefrina e cortisol, bem como à ativação de circuitos neurais relacionados à recompensa, vínculo e tomada de decisões. Além disso, o artigo apresenta estratégias terapêuticas eficazes no manejo das consequências negativas da paixão, incluindo intervenções farmacológicas, terapias cognitivas, mindfulness e psicoeducação. Os resultados apontam para a necessidade de uma abordagem integrada à saúde mental, que reconheça tanto os potenciais benefícios quanto os riscos emocionais envolvidos nas experiências apaixonadas. Este estudo contribui para o aprofundamento da compreensão sobre a paixão como fenômeno psicopatológico e propõe caminhos terapêuticos para seu manejo clínico.
