A member asked:
Can serotonine imbalance cause you to stare blankly into space more often?other causes of staring much more often in otherwise a healthy 25y.o. person
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not serotonin : Staring off into space is a cardinal symptom of adhd. But it can also happen for many other reasons, including auditory deficiencies, learning disabilities, seizures, disinterest, depression, boredom, but not because of a serotonin imbalance (unless you call depression a serotonin imbalance). Please discuss with your doctor.
