No there's no chemical reset for the brain. There are various supplements, drugs etc that can help, but we simply don't have the knowledge to 'normalise' brain function. Biochemistry is mind bogglingly complex and certainly varies from person to person. Targeting and altering gene expression will be future treatments, so a genetic disposition to a mental illness could be treated this way. I'm afraid for now you have to do it the hard way like the rest of us and experiment and/or find a good doctor :(
