Still Depressed Even ON Medication??

DO YOU SUFFER FROM DEPRESSION AND/OR ANXIETY?


ARE YOU TAKING MEDICATIONS FOR IT?


...HOW'S THAT WORKING FOR YOU?????


The data says that less than 15% of all mood disorders are from a TRUE 'chemical imbalance' or genetic predisposition....


...Let's talk about depression...Did you know there are DIFFERENT KINDS OF DEPRESSION? Learn more about them here: https://goo.gl/SRvLfW


...Most depression is treated with SSRI's (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)...But in many cases unrelated to TRUE major depression...THEY DON'T WORK!!

...WHY?


...Because there are A LOT of other things that cause depression, especially in women....

...One of those things is STRESS RESPONSE SYSTEM DYSFUNCTION, and abnormal cortisol levels...In fact, there are over 6000 scientific articles which have shown that HIGH CORTISOL, NOT LOW SEROTONIN cause true MAJOR DEPRESSION....


...Dysthymia, Seasonal Affective Disorder, and Postpartum Depression have actually been associated with LOW CORTISOL....


...Then there's sleep disorders, other hormone imbalances, anything disturbing proper gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and the list goes on and on....



SO...If you suffer from a mood problem, and your medication isn't working or making you feel worse...THERE'S A REASON!!! And clearly, your doctor either hasn't looked for it or doesn't know where to look....
