Jason, my guess is that some psychiatrists speak about brain chemistry imbalances so that a prescription drug can be presented as the best solution. I actually think brain chemistry is an underpinning of mental illness. But I also think there are natural solutions that can be effective and without so many harmful side effects.

IMO, a lot of breakthroughs are needed in the future, get a clear understanding of the mechanics of mind-brain interface and its functioning. Dr. V.S. Ramachandran says the next step is to map the mental illness onto the neural pathways of the brain itself. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tell-Tale_Brain *** "Above all, psychiatrists need to be more honest with their patients, he believes. "They shouldn't tell people their illness is caused by a chemical imbalance when there is no evidence this exists. Psychiatry has little knowledge of the underlying processes governing mental health and it should not pretend otherwise." http://www.vancouversun.com/health/Dozens+mental+disorders +exist/9011120/story.html
