Thanks Claire, this is extremely helpful, thank you. I've heard of both serotonin and cortisol but wasn't aware of their relationship with depression and anxiety so this makes a lot of sense to me.
I remember a guy at work whose wife was going through PTSD saying something like "... if it was me, I would just choose to not be sad..." and even at the time where I didn't know anything about the brain chemistry side of things, I knew that couldn't possibly be correct.
The brain is so so so complex, but I'm glad humanity seems to be making some progress into understanding the various elements of mental health.

I've always been fascinated by psychology. They do say most therapists become psychiatrists or psychologists because they are trying to self-diagnose - which you should never do by the way. However, knowledge is power and understanding how both internal ad external factors can affect our mental health is pivotal.
