I can only comment from my own experience of extreme manic depression. I’m now 16 and have been cared for by a mental health team (CAMHS) since I was 12. My dad and other members of his side of the family have all experienced the ‘normal’ behaviour of believing others are plotting against tgem, this then leading to depressive symptoms. As soon as we’d been put onto fluoxetine our lives inproved. All the problems we’ve ever had can be explained by a simple chemical imbalance 🙂
