How real is depression? Due to the heightened awareness of its existence, depression has become a common term often heard in day-to-day conversations as each person tries to cope with the challenges of our generation. However, there are still those who need more evidence to say that it is real and not just a hype.
Meet another speaker for , Dr. Anne Cristine Guevarra. Her research focuses on the neurobiology of depression. Throughout the years, several studies have been conducted to broaden the understanding of depression, from its symptomatology, neurochemical mechanisms, and involvement of various biological systems. Molecular-based approaches have been employed including that of the discovery of the first antidepressant. Even the outcomes of psychotherapy, being a non-pharmacological form of treatment, have broadened beyond clinical results to show molecular changes in the brain made visible through neuroimaging.
