Detailed explanation-1: -High levels of dopamine don’t cause schizophrenia symptoms. The role dopamine plays in schizophrenia is more complex than that and involves specific dopamine activity. Over time, researchers have discovered evidence that isn’t in line with the original dopamine hypothesis of schizophrenia.
Detailed explanation-2: -Post-mortem studies have shown high dopamine and HVA concentrations in various subcortical brain regions and greater than normal dopamine receptor densities in the brains of schizophrenic patients.
Detailed explanation-3: -Having too much dopamine-or too much dopamine concentrated in some parts of the brain and not enough in other parts-is linked to being more competitive, aggressive and having poor impulse control. It can lead to conditions that include ADHD, binge eating, addiction and gambling.
