Most of these types of names do not have specific suffixes but some do. For example, the suffix -aert meant something like âsomeone who â¦â, similar to the use of -er in English (to perform â performer).
Stimulants (also referred to as psychostimulants) are psychoactive drugs that induce temporary improvements in either mental or physical functions or both. Examples of these kinds of effects may include enhanced alertness, wakefulness, and locomotion, among others.
Stimulants comprise a large group of substances that include everything from the caffeine in coffee to illegal drugs such as crack cocaine and Amphetamines. Stimulants increase the amount of neurotransmitters in the brain. Neurotransmitters are the chemical messages that nerve cells send to each other to create sensations in the body. Dopamine is the neurotransmitter that is the most sensitive to the action of Stimulants. Dopamine is similar to adrenaline and affects brain processes that control movement, emotional response, and the ability to experience pleasure and pain.
