What are moods?
Mood disorders or affective disorders are characterized by significant alterations in emotions. Globally, major mood disorders have increased by more than 25% since 2020.
The prolonged feeling of sadness or exaltation, sensation of tension or nervousness are examples of how mood disorders manifest. Some signs of these conditions include:
- Negative feelings, such as excessive worry, sensation of fear, irritability or nervousness, sadness, despair, or guilt.
- Muscle tension.
- Lack of concentration, memory failures.
- Changes in sleep patterns.
- Constant fatigue due to lack of energy.
What physiological mechanisms affect mood?
Mood is controlled by the balance of certain compounds called neurotransmitters located in the brain. These are serotonin, GABA, norepinephrine, and dopamine.
Serotonin and dopamine are directly related to the control of emotions, motor and sexual behavior, appetite, circadian rhythms (including sleep), among others. GABA modulates muscle tone and relaxation, while norepinephrine regulates stress, muscle contractility, and metabolic responses.
