Causes of Depression

Depression and sadness have multiple root causes. Biochemical depression is a medical state and gear that the central nervous system goes into. Multiple events can trigger this gear shift including medical stress, cardiac events, and psychodynamically loaded stressors that impact your life and unconscious foundations (to name a few).
