The way that marijuana works is that anandamide, a natural neurotransmitter produced, reacts to cannabinoid receptors in the brain. Delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol mimics the action of these anandamides and attaches itself to the cannabinoid receptors.
on the other hand, neurotransmitters that are affected by Marijuana are Dopamine and Norepinephrine. Dopamine has a variety of roles in the brain, such as attention and gratification. Norepinephrine, for the most part, affects action and response.
Serotonin and GABA may also be affected.
