👉 Counterstimulation is a strategy in psychology and neuroscience used to induce or reduce anxiety, fear, or other negative emotions by decreasing the activity of neurotransmitters that are involved in these processes. It involves manipulating certain factors in the environment that can lead to an altered state of consciousness or behavior. Counterstimulations may be used for various purposes including reducing symptoms of anxiety disorders, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as improving cognitive function, mood, and sleep quality.
