The activity of the brain is crucial to the body's metabolism. Absence of brain function is the clinical definition of death.

Why are stimulants prescribed for ADHD?
It's because of the way that the human brain is wired. when a normal person takes a stimulant, their brain releases chemicals that boost the mental activity. When a person with ADD/ADHD takes a stimulant, their brains respond to the chemicals by slowing down. A simple metaphor would be that the wires in the brain are backwards for ADD/ADHD persons.

Is being lazy a sign of depression?
One of the big ones! Depression causes you to have a feeling of "slowing down." You feel sluggish, have no energy, and feel tired all the time. Part of this is because you have lower levels of a brain chemical called norepinephrine - that's the one which helps your brain signals move along quickly and efficiently!
