Re: just some interesting info. on hippocampus and depression

[Guest guest]

Thanks Who,

I wish I was brainy enough to understand this. Is this stating that

depression is caused by a shrinking hippocampus or antidepressants

cause this to shrink??

Maybe that what ever is affecting the hippocampus is causeing

depression. looks like the hippocampus may control some moods, also

read that the cortex does too. I don't know about the

antidepressents, but some people have worse mood disorders while

takeing them than they had before. maybe because they are for

psychological stress and some people may be suffering mood disorders

from physilogical stress instead. the WOW article I posted, exposure

to voc's touched on it some, it's a good read. kindof explains many

effects that we've all been through. they should of known better than

to enclose operations like that. glad my family still does farming

the old way, outside, at least you get some mixture of fresh air. you

couldn't pay me enough to work at one of those industral operations,

just driving by one makes me fell like killing over with mcs attacks.

mycotoxins galore.I can't blame anyone for not wanting one of those

down wind.
