712.364.3131 Plains Talk by

Heidi Lohff LISW

THE BIOLOGY OF DEPRESSION Not only is it very important to treat depression for psychological reasons, but there is evidence that depression may physically alter the structure of the brain’s white matter.

According to a study involving more than 3,000 people, cutting-edge imaging technology revealed that the quality of the brain’s white matter in those with symptoms of depression was reduced in comparison with the brain structure of non-depressed study participants. This is important because the brain’s white matter contains circuitry that enables brain cells to communicate with one another, thereby underpinning brain function. This study provides all the more reason for people with symptoms of depression to seek professional help that can effectively change their thinking patterns.

You are not alone. This is the first thing we tell people seeking help for anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, abuse or a diagnosed mental health disorder. We help people just like you—and nothing like you—every single day. We welcome people of all ages and from all backgrounds.

Respect and understanding is at the core of what we do. Please call our office today at 712-364-3500 or 800325-1192. Our address is 700 East 2nd St., Ida Grove. We help people cope with everyday living.

P.S. Previous research has linked disruption in the brain’s white matter to problems with thinking and emotion processing.
