Quote ~ “In this illness called depression there are not enough chemicals so the messages do not flow properly and as the brain controls the whole body everything goes out of balance. This explains the wide range of symptoms that may occur; from feelings of depression that gave the illness its name to headaches or stomach upsets. It is like one imbalance sets off another like cascading dominoes running through your body. The neurochemical imbalance may be small or very marked and, in this way, resembles diabetes or hypertension. The same concept is true for depressive illness: a slight imbalance can be solved by positive thinking and lifestyle changes. A more marked imbalance will need some form of talking therapy to help correct these chemical imbalances. ”

Thank you very much for exposing the continued misinformation about the "chemical imbalance" theory. This is very important.
ReplyDeleteDr. Mike Neville - your statements are outrageous - filled with untruths. You should be ashamed of yourself, telling the public - who trust and look up to you as a pillar of truth - a string of untruths. Terrible stuff Dr. Neville.
