Parkinson’s disease is specifically associated with low levels of the neurotransmitter dopamine. Involuntary shaking, stiffness, slowness of movement and sense of imbalance usually happen when dopamine-producing neurons die. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that is associated with the feelings of love, lust, motivation and addiction.
