Limbic Malfunctioning Quote by Dr Stefan Cembrowicz
““The limbic system works with many other brain systems. Neuroscientists suggest that, if the limbic system function is decreased, depression results. If limbic system activity is increased, inappropriate elation of mood or mania results. If the limbic system is malfunctioning, psychotic illness can result.””
