Marijuana's Effect on Neurotransmitters
What effect does Marijuana have on the brain's neurotransmitters while high and with frequent use?
Neurotransmitters like:
- Acetylcholine â?? involved in voluntary movement, learning, memory, and sleep
- Dopamine â?? correlated with movement, attention, and learning
- Norepinephrine â?? associated with eating, alertness
- Epinephrine â?? involved in energy, and glucose metabolism
- Serotonin â?? plays a role in mood, sleep, appetite, and impulsive and aggressive behavior
- GABA â?? (Gamma-Amino Butyric Acid) â?? inhibits excitation and anxiety
But I'm mainly interested in the effect on Dopamine and Serotonin.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated and would help ease my curiosity.Euphoric7 Reviewed by Euphoric7 on .
