What is it?
Dopamine is a chemical messenger in your brain. It is not just about pleasure. It is actually about the anticipation of a reward. It provides the fuel you need to start a task.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
In most brains, dopamine levels rise when a person thinks about a future goal. The ADHD brain has lower levels of dopamine receptors or lower production. This happens in the prefrontal cortex, which is your brain's command center. Without that chemical spark, the command center cannot turn on the engine to get you moving.
