Abstract
Psychiatric disorders are viewed as brain disorders affecting five circuits of the brain: the brainstem, the hypothalamus, the motor striatum, the limbic system (ventral striatum), and the neocortex. This five-circuit model combines neuroscientific, psychopharmacologic, evolutionary, introspective, and behavioral data. The article presents a broad speculative overview of some brain functions and dysfunctions relevant for clinicians.Entities:
