AFFECTED AREAS OF THE BRAIN
“….the current knowledge indicates that the pathophysiology of depression may be distributed across
many brain regions and circuits”
- we weten niet juist wat er in de hersenen gebeurt
- verschillende regios zijn involved bij depressie
Onset of depression more complex than a brain chemical imbalance
- Amygdala:
part of a group of structures deep in the brain that’s associated with emotions
o such as anger, pleasure, sorrow, fear and sexual arousal.
Recalling an emotionally charged memory activates the amygdala.
Activity in the amygdala is higher when a person is sad or clinically
depressed, and this continues even after recovery from depression.
This increase in activity may actually cause the amygdala to enlarge.
- Basal ganglia:
related group of structures deep in the brain.
They are connected to and interact with structures that are closer to the
brain’s surface.
They may help facilitate movement and may be involved in memorizing, thinking, and emotional
processing.
Some studies have found shrinkage and other structural changes in the basal ganglia in people
with depression.
