Doctors and scientists who bothered to conduct even the most cursory research on this topic have known that the chemical imbalance hypothesis, aka "serotonin hypothesis" is bullshit. There is no evidence for it and never has been. This mirrors the claims of the sugar industry telling us to eat sugar instead of fat. Completely unscientific advice becoming mainstream to the point where doctors are committing malpractice en masse and actually believe the stupidity they failed to verify. There should be some class action lawsuits based on this. The proponents of this idiotic, unscientific, unproven, unsubstantiated theory have ruined countless lives. Who knows how many people they have driven to hopelessness and suicide just to make money off of them? Just from personal experience, I know it's not zero. These are lives lost that didn't have to be. All in the name of profit. This is the kind of society we live in and we wonder why a huge percentage of the population is depressed?
