>b-but it's not real because there's no physical symptoms https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC486942/>Physical symptoms are common in depression, and, in fact, vague aches and pain are often the presenting symptoms of depression. These symptoms include chronic joint pain, limb pain, back pain, gastrointestinal problems, tiredness, sleep disturbances, psychomotor activity changes, and appetite changes. A high percentage of patients with depression who seek treatment in a primary care setting report only physical symptoms, which can make depression very difficult to diagnose. Physical pain and depression have a deeper biological connection than simple cause and effect; the neurotransmitters that influence both pain and mood are serotonin and norepinephrine. Dysregulation of these transmitters is linked to both depression and pain>b-but there's nothing in biology that points to depression being realhttps://www.healthyplace.com/blogs/breakingbipolar/2011/04/biological-evidence-for-depression-mental-illness-exists>Monoamines like serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline have been widely studied and almost everything that increases the concentration of monoamines has been shown to have antidepressant effects>Research is increasingly showing the role of dopamine in MDD. Dopamine levels are consistently low in depressed patients and experimentally reducing dopamine levels is associated with an inability to feel pleasure and decreased performance on a reward-driven task in those with an increased risk of depression>b-but that's all just from backwoods sources that aren't credible like an institutionhttps://www.health.harvard.edu/mind-and-mood/what-causes-depressioncont.
