Below is a link to a video that provides a very gripping critique of the "Chemical Imbalance" theory:

Depression is not a Chemical Imbalance in Your Brain - Here's Proof

This video expresses very controversial criticism of psychiatry. It condemns psychiatry as being allied with the drug industry in the relentless search for profit. There is some very compelling argument in this presentation. I learned a lot that I found interesting.

However, I found myself wondering what motivated the production of this video. The website is Mercola.com. It seems Dr. Joseph Mercola, himself, takes more than a passing interest in making money. He sells a lot of stuff.

Below is a link critical of Dr. Mercola:

Dr. Mercola: Visionary or Quack?

It seems that the biggest voices on both sides of this issue have a lot of money riding on their ability to get us to believe them. I guess we owe it to ourselves to hear from both perspectives. Ultimately, we got to look out for ourselves.
Thanks for this!
