I think my own depression is caused at least in part by translocation of bacteria from the intestinal lumen into the bloodstream, activating CMI (TH1) and causing the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (PIC), which cross the blood/brain barrier and have some effects on the brain causing depression.
My current strategy is to reduce the translocation of bacteria (low fat diet, prebiotics, probiotics) and take supplements like EPA fish oil and turmeric which reduce PICs.
