Mental Health Medication Story Inside your head is your brain. Each person’s brain is very different.The brain is like our control centre.The brain is where our personality, our actions and emotions are controlled.

These different areas are always working together and talking to each other. Messages go between brain and body This picture shows how messages go around the brain and body.

A message is then sent to the ‘move body’ (orange) area saying that the finger needs to move away. The finger then moves away from the fire. These messages travel so fast that we don’t even notice them. These messages are carried around the body by the nervous system. The nervous system is like our “knowledge system”. There are two ways that messages are carried around the nervous system. Part of it is electrical, like electricity. And the other part is chemical, carried by natural chemicals in the body.
