Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #10: Depression
Depression is a state where there is low mood to the point where it affects feelings, behavior, motivation, and thoughts. Affected individuals tend to be sad, experience decreased appetite, and have issues with concentration and thinking.
Since dopamine is released to provide a feeling of satisfaction and an energy boost, individuals with low dopamine levels can experience depression. Various studies have also found that low dopamine levels can result in depression as seen in patients with Parkinson’s disease.
