2Neurotransmitter Imbalance
Some neurotransmitters, such as norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine, play a key part in regulating mood. These are chemical elements that help different brain areas communicate with each other. When there is an imbalance, depression symptoms would occur. This means you can be at risk when the body has too little or too much of several neurotransmitters. There are many reasons for this change. Therefore, the main treatment for depression is to change the levels of these elements to retain a balance.[2]
