Mononucleosis and Depression

Posted by Wayne R. on March 12, 1999, at 8:59:29

My depression started just after recovering from Mononucleosis as a young teen. Many years later, when I finally got professional help, my Dr told me that there was gathering evidence that the Epstein-Barr virus could trigger depression. He ordered a blood test that confirmed antibodies to EBV.
Can anyone elaborate on the current understanding? Has a firm link been established? Can others of you link your clinical depression to Mono? Wayne
