excellent article Phyllis... it kind of blows a huge hole in the chemical imbalance theory that is over 50 years old... think about that for a moment... a 50+ year error in judgement but i'm hoping they draw the right conclusion when it comes to genetics also... there is a gene involved but it doesn't require a medication to reverse... let's see exactly where this goes now...
