In some types of neurodivergence neurotransmitters are produced and sensed by the body in higher or lower concentrations, which alters what people can do. Neurodivergence is a wonderful, complex and sometimes difficult aspect of human diversity. Neurotransmitters are part of everyday life and are responsible for different types of behaviour although some of them overlap in their roles.
