Psychoanalysis or therapy will not reverse the depression that comes from profound omega-3 fatty acid deficiencies, a lack of vitamin B12, a low functioning thyroid or chronic mercury toxicity. Like most other drugs, psychoactive drugs don’t cure the problem but only suppress the symptoms. We must understand the reason for this chemical (neurotransmitter) imbalance in the brain.

The brain can be affected by many types of underlying causes, including

  • hormonal imbalances (such as hypothyroidism or blood sugar problems),
  • inadequate detoxification by the liver,
  • excessive chemical or heavy metal exposure,
  • gastrointestinal problems or dysbiosis (imbalances in the gut flora),
  • food sensitivities,
  • nutritional deficiencies,
  • lack of sleep,
  • lack of physical exercise and
  • stress.

All of the above can lead to brain disorders. Many can be improved and even reversed if the underlying issues are addressed. Everything else is just a bandage approach.
