STRESS MAKES YOU DELULU
so when you are stressed your body releases this hormone known as cortisol- cortisol what it does it reduces all the levels of happy hormones in your body- like dopamine serotonin and oxytocin and stuff. now its not good that these hormones are low cause low serotonin is the major cause of depression and anxiety in patients, so technically your body needs to do something to set the levels back so something that can increase the happy hormone level is you fantasizing about your crush. also you might wonder if that crush and you did not have any interactions recently but still why did it come up - its probably because of something known as DMN in your brain - (Default mode network). this thing is activated when you are swayed away by anything other than your daily normal tasks like studying and stuff. so basically this network causes you to day dream and when you day dream and fantasize you get dopamine. subhanallah factor DMN is activated under stress. hence proved why people develop or fantasize more when they are stressed.
