Rethinking the “Chemical Imbalance” Theory of Depression

No two experiences of depression are the same. It comes in all kinds of shapes and forms depending on the specific person. For some people, depression can manifest as anger and lashing out, and for others, it can look like unexpected crying jags and difficulty being social.
