chemicals released by neurons to send communication across synaptic
clefts to other neurons
-impact human emotion and behavior
Many psychiatric disorders and client symptoms occur from an excess,
deficiency, or imbalance of _________
neurotransmitters
Neurotransmission:
the chemical transmission of information between neurons and their
target cells
-the chemicals, or neurotransmitters, are released from their transport
vesicles to bind with receptor sites to perform their duties, which are
excitatory or inhibitory
-neurotransmitter then either returned and stored for future use
(reuptake) or inactivated and dissolved by enzymes
Excitatory neurotransmitters:
increase the likelihood that the neuron will fire an action potential
inhibitory neurotransmitters:
decrease the likelihood that a neuron will fire an action
neurotransmitters that most impact mental health can be classified into
four major categories:
cholinergics
-acetylcholine
