The Best Depression Treatment For You
Description
You know you're stressed. You know you're anxious. Do you have depression? And do you need to know the latest in the biology of how the brain works and depression works or doesn't work and whether the gut is involved in getting meaningful help?
That's today's big question. I promise it's kind of one question, even if there are a ton of different answers, and they're going to be different for everybody.
This conversation is a follow-up to our last couple of conversations about the brain, the gut, and depression. My returning guest is Srijan Sen.
Srijan is still the Francis and Kenneth Eisenberg Professor of Depression and Neurosciences at the University of Michigan and the Director of the Francis and Kenneth Eisenberg and Family Depression Center.
His leading research focuses on the interactions between genes and the environment and their effect on stress, anxiety, and depression.
