Question

What is the main cause of depression thinking, mental disease or any disorder?

Answer 1

Most of the time? Hormone and chemical imbalances.

Answer 2

Problems with Serotonin or Dopamine, which are brain chemicals.  

Answer 3

As a counselor, I have experience in working on these issues.  Mental disorders have a variety of causes - genetics, changes in brain chemistry, environment (like childhood, family, trauma, abuse, stresses, etc.) - depending on what the disorder is.

Answer 4

your neurochemicals

Answer 5

Why do you ask?  To help yourself, a friend, a family member?  

There is no main cause.  There are several reasons that mental health proffessionals know about.  Trauma, poverty, neglect, abuse, genetics are a few that come to mind.  But people have mental disorders where a cause is not found.  The problem maybe can be pinpointed and hopefully treated successfully.  Many issues of the brain are still left undiscovered.  If you hurt your head in an accident, that can trigger mental/emotional episodes.

I don't know if I helped answer your question.  If you have any particular problem you want to solve, just ask.  I'm sure you will be led toward the right path.
