In reply to Serotonin vs. Dopamine Deficiency - Symptoms?, posted by Buster on August 7, 2001, at 18:45:24
Its thought that dopamine deficiency leads to ADHD, thus the need for dopamine-enhancing medications like methylphenidate and dextroamphetamine. Also, dopamine deficiency may lead to apathy and indifference (sometimes due to SSRI depletion of dopamine).
