I'd love to see us get people to stop using so much caffeine and nicotine and cannabis to clear up their minds and then also to eat good food and to move their body every day. If we can do that, I think the amount of people who need these medications will go down a lot. The meds aren't really the problem. The problem is how we talk to people about them as if

you know the reason they need them is a brain illness and the drug fixes the brain illness and the drug is safe and effective even though it's never been studied longer than

you know longer than a year and it leads to all of these problems down down the road i mean if we could just help people with the things that actually underlie the depression and not lie to them about what the drugs are doing we'd be in a much better place and i hope we could do that for the dogs as well you know that it will translate that that level of thinking can translate over into the the animal world

We've been doing this in humans for decades. You stick a needle into the space between the vertebrae in the lower back and you get it into where the spinal cord is and then you suck up cerebral spinal fluid. This is the fluid that is kind of going around your brain. It's what the brain kind of floats in and what the spinal cord floats in.

You suck up that fluid and then you look for serotonin or the metabolites for serotonin. And we've been doing this in humans for a very long time and trying to correlate it with different moods. And that's why we know. And that's what Joanna Moncrief found.

was that there was no correlation between the neurotransmitters and the people who were depressed compared to the people who were not depressed, who had the levels drawn. It has nothing to do with low or high neurotransmitters. It's not that simple.

don't have motivation and just... I think that's very unlikely, personally. In almost all of the people that I've met who have been depressed over the last 10 years and kind of longer, it's very hard to find someone who doesn't have a reason why they're unhappy. I think depression and anxiety is... it's mostly due to life hardship and then medical problems or substance use. Now,

There are some people who are just more nervous and that's their temperament. Generally, they tend to have more depression because when bad things happen in their life because they're more emotional and they feel things stronger, they will be more likely to be depressed. This is women as well. Women experience depression at a higher rate than men.

They're much more emotionally attuned and emotionally sensitive than men and so they're more likely to develop depression. Your question is, is it still possible that there is someone out there and they come out and they're just depressed and there's nothing out there?

It's always a possibility because you have to be humble and know that there are some things that we may not know about the human brain and we're still learning things. I think it's a possibility but I reckon it's 99% of the people with depression or anxiety. Interactions and environment. Yeah, it's due to life and problems.
