Physiology of Motivated Behaviors
Anxiolytics are a class of medications designed to reduce anxiety and promote calmness. They work primarily by enhancing the effects of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, which leads to a sedative effect. By modulating brain activity, anxiolytics can influence motivated behaviors related to stress and anxiety management.
