Myth of “ Chemical Imbalance “
Is Depression Really Caused by a “Chemical Imbalance”? New Landmark Study Says No.
A comprehensive review led by researchers at University College London (UCL) has found no solid scientific evidence that depression is caused by low serotonin levels or reduced serotonin activity—a theory long believed to underpin the use of common antidepressants.
Published in Molecular Psychiatry, this umbrella review analyzed decades of studies across various disciplines. The findings challenge the widely accepted “chemical imbalance” theory, which forms the foundation of popular antidepressants like SSRIs (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors).
🔬 While SSRIs are believed to “correct” serotonin deficiencies, this review suggests such deficiencies might not even exist in the first place. Alarmingly, some evidence hints these drugs may actually reduce serotonin over time.
🧠 The researchers caution that up to 90% of the public believes in this now-questioned theory—potentially discouraging hope for recovery and limiting non-drug treatment options, such as therapy, lifestyle changes, and social support.
The authors advocate for a shift in mental health care: focusing more on life stressors, trauma, and socio-environmental factors, and less on unproven biological explanations.

Narcissist accusations are confessions
A narcissist’s accusations are actually confessions.
Read that again.
When they accuse you of lying—
They’re the one lying.
When they say you cheated—
They’re already entertaining someone else.
When they say you’re crazy—
They’re losing control of the narrative.
They project to protect.
They accuse to confuse.
They confess through condemnation.
Why?
Because if they can convince everyone that you’re the problem,
they never have to look at themselves.
🔥 But here’s the truth:
Their mask always slips.
The projection always reveals the truth—for those willing to see it.
Don’t internalize what was never yours to carry.
Their words were never about you. They were about them.
Their guilt. Their lies. Their shame.
