Generally, depressants slow down neurotransmission (messages sent from neuron to neuron) reducing overall activity in the brain, whereas stimulants speed up the amount of neurotransmission, hence increasing overall activity in the brain.
What is it called when neurotransmitters are recycled?
The process of recycling neurotransmitters is known as reuptake. This is when neurotransmitters are taken back up into the presynaptic neuron after they have been released into the synaptic cleft.
