Psychiatric conditions as positions on a single curve: the inverted-U relationship between catecholamine delivered through the medial forebrain bundle and prefrontal function. Too little, too much, a jammed gate, or a sparse infrastructure. Tap any condition.
Tap any condition on the curve to see its position, its neuromodulator strand, the circuit involved, the mechanism, and the pharmacological approach that addresses it.
The curve peaks at optimal catecholamine. ADHD and depression sit to the left (too little); PTSD and rage to the right (too much). OCD sits atop the curve with its gate jammed; autism sits apart as a connectivity deficit independent of level.
