Depression: The Real Cause May Be Your Body looks beyond the traditional view that low mood is only a problem of the mind or brain. Drawing on more than twenty years of clinical experience as a psychologist, Dr. Holly investigates the many ways that the body itself can contribute to depression.
Working with current scientific research and alternative medicine approaches, the author examines how physiological issues—such as underlying dysfunctions, disorders, and nutritional deficiencies—may trigger or worsen depressive symptoms. Rather than treating depression as a one‑size‑fits‑all condition, the book encourages readers to consider how their overall physical health might be involved.
This concise guide is written for anyone who has experienced depression personally or through a loved one and is looking for a broader understanding of possible root causes. It offers a fresh perspective for readers who suspect that standard explanations do not tell the whole story.
Inside you will find:
- An overview of how body systems can influence mood
- Discussion of potential physiological contributors to depression
- Insights from clinical practice and alternative modalities
- Encouragement to explore comprehensive approaches to mental well‑being
