Dopamine produces feelings of pleasure and is usually inhibitory. Glycine is used by neurons in the spinal cord and is inhibitory. Seratonin is involved in many functions including but not limited to mood and appetite, and is inhibitory in pain pathways. Norepinephrine is part of the flight or fights response, and is usually excitatory. Acetylcholine is used to control muscles and regulate memory; it's usually excitatory.
