empleat Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Summary: "The serotonin theory of depression started to be widely promoted in the 1990s, coinciding with a push to prescribe more SSRIs." News: https://bigthink.com/neuropsych/depression-serotonin/ The article links to a "systematic umbrella review" which has altmetric 20 of 166,614 https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-022-01661-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ni Mimi. Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 A mental status, like Siamese Twins, goes hand in hand with environmental circumstances. Because man reacts to stimuli that excite whatever areas in the brain, the corresponding areas accordingly respond by synaptic action through secreting chemicals in line with the triggers that underlie the conditions that circumscribe the environmental circumstances. In my opinion, the issue’s not so much about the what but rather, the how of this article https://bigthink.com/neuropsych/depression-serotonin/. And to our colleague who’s said that, “I have ADHD and ASD, I Am terrible at expressing myself. Please don't take everything I say literally! I read millions of articles... I Am open to all possibilities and don't have definitive opinions. And if evidence says otherwise, I will change my positions! Thank you for understanding!” for all it’s worth, hang in there; painful world, but what can I say to ease your situation? I understand and am sorry for your pain.

empleat Posted July 22, 2022 Author Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Is there something you don't agree with and if so, can you be more specific? So not only you leave out what you mean, but then you start with personal attacks... LOL these forums suck! No one discuss here anything objectively... I don't want your sympathies... do you have to say anything of any relevance? Just in case if you get offended and discussion takes even worse turn (because people here have thin skin): because why do you speak of my personal issues, I went here to share news, if I wanted to talk about my psychological issues I go to psychology forum, no offense taken, but it is like wtf?

Ni Mimi. Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Point taken: my apologies for being empathic – but nevertheless, why did you’ve to share something so personal if it couldn’t evoke some sentimentalism in others – “I went here to share news,” your words, not mine. So, “LOL these forums suck! No one discuss here anything objectively...," were you objective? Nobody needs to know about your mental status if you assume some people can’t consider them along personal lines. Concerning what I meant, I think my statement, “In my opinion, the issue’s not so much about the what but rather, the how," is self-explanatory.
