In order to sustain
ourselves physically, we
need such things as food,
clean water,shelter, sleep,
physical movement, etc.
These needs are
understood by everyone.
If you don’t get them
met, you’ll die. However,
meeting psychological
needs is not so readily
embraced. Psychological
needs arise from our
capacity to live to our full
potential, to optimize our
functioning, to self-
actualize and become
happier and more
fulfilled.

61. NEURONS IN THE BRAIN

62. WHAT IS A NEUROTRANSMITTER?
Neurons are Nerve Cells,
the basic unit of the
Nervous System.
Neurons generate
electrical signals that
travel along their axons.
When a pulse of
electricity reaches a
junction called a
synapse, it causes a
neurotransmitter
chemical to be released,
which binds to receptors
on other cells and
thereby alters their
electrical activity.

63. NEUROTRANSMITTERS & DEPRESSION
Of approx. 30 neurotransmitters that have
been identified, researchers have discovered
associations between clinical depression and
the function of three major neurochemicals.
These substances are Serotonin,
Norepinephrine, and Dopamine.
Antidepressants influence the overall
balance of these three neurotransmitters
within structures of the brain that regulate
emotion, reactions to stress, and the physical
drives of sleep, appetite, and sexuality.
