Reason for depression

It depends on the person. Sometimes depression is a chemical imbalance in the body which can be leveled using certain medications. Other times it can be circumstance and a state of mind. Even though it isnt physical in this instance, drs and meds can help here also, although not as dramatically as for the chemical reason.

Hello Iraj, Everyone's opinions regarding depression and its origin will differ. I would suggest that you ask your Doctor if they could answer that for you. Susanne

Hi everybody, My question is if there is any physical reason for depression? Let’s say like a brain damage or a tumor. Or it is caused because of our life experiences? I would appreciate any feedback. Iraj
