The true roots of chronic depression and anxiety lie in disrupted neurotransmitters in the brain, not deep-seated psychological problems or personality disorders, and using drugs to address the issue only perpetuates the problem even further.
Neurotransmitters are chemicals in the brain, that among other things, are responsible for regulating our emotional state. They keep us alert, focused, attentive, calm, relaxed, content, happy, confident, provide energy, joy, and pleasure, and regulate pain. Neurotransmitters also enable us to experience inner peace, feelings of well-being, self-esteem, empowerment, empathy, compassion, and connection with ourselves, others, and our spiritual beliefs.
In order to maintain optimal mental health, all these brain chemicals need to be functioning properly. Unfortunately, that is not always the case, the production and/or function of neurotransmitters can be altered and disrupted quite easily. Too much or too little of these brain chemicals will result in impaired mental health like anxiety and/or depression. Restore balance to the neurotransmitters and you can break free from the disruptive symptoms.
