Yes I've been aware of the adrenal/cortisol connection since I read the book called the "yeast Connection". I've believed for years that stress leads to fatigued adrenals leads to depression. Now I'm not saying all depression but possibly a big player in a lets say a majority of depressions. The fact that anti depressants work at all is probably due to blocking the reuptake of norepinephrine and eventual down regulation of their receptors. This lets the adrenals get rested. The old tcas are primarily ne reuptake blocker. Not sure how the ssris affect the adrenals. Welcome to the rested adrenal/cortisol connection.
