I believe stress can and does cause depression, even a little bit of stress, I think people percieve and deal with stress differently and so some are more sensitive to stress than others. I dont think serotonin levels are the key to being happy, I think SSRIs are overprescribed. It would be nice if there were drugs that relieved stress without makeing you into a zombie, because I think stress can be a major problem, maybe even the only problem causeing depression, and its often not realized how much stress is affecting a person. Depression, anxiety, stress, I think they are all connected, rather than being completely different things.
