HORMONES, CHEMICAL LOCHA & MENTAL HEALTH : DR SANJEEV JAIN (NIMHANS) 

Is there a connection between our thoughts and emotions and the release of hormones in our brain and body? YES, there is!
When we feel happy and excited, it causes Happy chemicals like dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins to be released in our brain and body …and when we are stressed, hormones like adrenalin and cortisol are released! Not all stress is BAD and some people actually thrive with STRESS. But what happens when there is prolonged stress? There is excessive release of hormones like cortisol, which MAY lead to “a chemical locha” or chemical imbalance in our body and brain!
Dr. Sanjeev Jain from NIMHANS explains further. He is a professor of Psychiatry and has been part of extensive research in the area of epigenetics and psychiatric disorders.
