Around 80% of people surveyed believe in the serotonin theory of depression, which has now been categorically disproved by a research paper published in the top academic journal Nature Molecular Psychiatry. 

Today, I was fortunate enough to interview one of the researchers who published the paper. Dr Mark Horowitz is a Clinical Research Fellow in the British NHS and an Honorary Clinical Research Fellow at UCL. He has completed a PhD in the neurobiology of depression and the pharmacology of antidepressants at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King’s College London. 

Mark was on antidepressants for 15 years as a student and when he tried to come off them, he experienced insomnia, panic attacks, dizziness, anxiety and low mood and he has now used his clinical background to develop strategies to help others come off anti-depressants in a safe manner.
