Why do humans get sad?
Our emotions are regulated in our brain and sometimes we are happy and sometimes we are sad. Mental health issues are a result of this process becoming dysregulated. For example, depression could be simplified as a sadness which does not return to neutral. Rather, your neutral mood is overall reduced and you can feel significant sadness for long periods of time and even anhedonia, the inability to feel happy. This episode Andrew, a Neuroscience researcher, goes through the origins of emotions, how our body regulates them and what is missing in society today leading to the current mental health crisis. Give each other compassion, we’ve all just been through hell.
