| Abstract | Cocaine induces a wide range of emotions in humans, from an initial high (euphoric state) to severe anxiety, paranoia, depression, and anhedonia. As a psychomotor stimulant, cocaine has a potent effect on motor behavior, increasing locomotion and causing stereotyped repetitious behavior, tics, and uncontrollable tremors. Despite the fact that the psychological and behavioral effects of cocaine use in humans have been well documented for over 100 years, the current knowledge of the neurobiological events underlying the abuse of cocaine in humans is still limited. |
