Depression - The Secret Of

The secret of depression is that it is a none life threatening condition being treated by the medical industry with mood alternating drugs which can threaten you life, even destroy your life and are very profitable for them. None life threatening means that the depression will not directly cause your body to not function and die as with cancer or heart disease. This depression treatment seems validated by the fact that at first the symptoms are treated fast and the problem seems to be solved. The problems begin later when more or stronger drugs must be taken to mask the original depression or the original problem.

The long term effects of taking these drugs along with the drug side effects is the dependence on the drugs to be able to relate to others as close to normal as possible. Depression is caused by stress, life style, difficult problems, diet and others which cause our brain to use up it supply of neurotransmitters. Neurotransmitters are a chemical messenger used by neuron (nerve cells) to communicate in the brain . This is why with most of us can correct our depression with a vacation. Time, diet and lack of 24/7 stress is the answer for most of us. Given these our body can corrects the chemical imbalance which causes unclear or incorrect messages which we call depression.

The reason that more or stronger drugs are needed for the long term treatment of the symptoms of depression is that our bodies are self adjusting with lots of the automatic functions out of our control. Such as the productions of neurotransmitters and breathing. These drugs cause the brain to function with less neurotransmitters, which seems like a good thing until the body decides that the demand for neurotransmitters has dropped and less is needed and produces less. This causes a cycle of more drugs and less production of neurotransmitters, and a downward spiral into deeper and deeper depression. This vacation solution seems simple, but the application is impossible.

To get the nutrition necessary from our over used, mineral depleted and over processed food supply would take more foods than one could eat. And the 24/7 stress is so much a part of our life that we do not know how or do not want to change. The ideal solution is to give the body what it needs to make and replace the neurotransmitters which are causing you to be depressed. This involves large doses of natural nutrition designed to give the body the means and way to correct the chemical imbalance.
