HOW DEPRESSION AFFECTS THE BRAIN
The current treatment for depression is based on the monoamine deficiency hypothesis. This hypothesizes that one of three neurotransmitters in the brain is deficient or underactive. Neurotransmitters can be thought of as the chemical messengers within the brain. They help one cell in the brain communicate with another to pass a message along. But this hypothesis is limited because there are more than a hundred neurotransmitters in the brain and billions of connections between neurons. So we know that it's not just one abnormality that's causing depression, it could be dozens of different factors. For decades, we thought that the primary cause of depression was an abnormality in these neuro-transmitters specifically serotonin or norepinephrine. However, serotonin and norepinephrine couldn't account for all of the symptoms of depression in people who had major depression.

We now know that these two chemicals regulate how the brain is changing over time and how it adapts.
