0:00 Hi Today we will answer many questions from friends about how to overcome depression without medication Can we increase serotonin in the brain without medication check the following video Hello friends, back with me, doctor chime Ardian, a psychiatrist from Siloam Hospital Bogor, today we will answer many questions from friends about Can depression actually be treated without medication Can we use other ways to increase serotonin in the brain well before we talk further we want to get to know first about What is depression depression according to the
0:45 previous video will be a Complex interaction between the body's biological system between environmental stressors, environmental support, up to the response of the mind or toket if so many aspects that influence depression one aspect that influences depression that will be the main discussion today is the biological system or body system It is only hypothesized or estimated by research that depression is caused by a lack of serotonin in the body serotonin is what is serotonin Is a neurotransmitter or a substance that transmits between two nerves this substance between two nerves serves to
1:32 convey messages between the nerves before and the nerves after serotonin becomes a messenger here the function of serotonin itself is to make us feel happy, happy, so yes, feel calm, the function of serotonin is very much like in My video yesterday, you can check it if you are still confused about the previous video, serotonin is very useful so that a lack of serotonin can make someone depressed. We have been depressed for more than four or five decades. psychiatrists have mainly relied on antidepressant drugs. To manipulate the amount of serotonin in the brain, antidepressants are used to increase the amount of serotonin between the nerve gaps. The most frequently used drugs are of course
2:18 selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors or SSRIs. If serotonin's function is to make you happy. Why do we have to use drugs? Why don't we just eat serotonin? For example, right? Why do n't we eat something that actually serotonin enters the stomach so that it can be in the brain. High serotonin is not that simple. First, 90% of serotonin is not in the brain. 90% of serotonin is in the digestive tract. But the problem is that serotonin in the body does not flow to the brain. That's not how it works. There is a barrier between the brain and outside the brain called the Blood Brain Barrier. There is an inhibitor that cannot make
3:06 serotonin enter directly from food to the brain. So we can't eat serotonin so that serotonin in the brain increases. No, what selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors do is prevent the destruction or destruction of serotonin so that the serotonin that is disturbed by the nerves becomes larger in number. In theory, it increases the amount of serotonin. so that makes the treatment of depression happen because serotonin increases the symptoms of depression are reduced Well that's the reason why it's not as simple as eating serotonin so that serotonin in the body increases so there are other ways that are needed for us to increase serotonin in the body
3:52 hi okay before continuing as usual I want to disclaim first this video is not intended to replace the counseling process at all if you are depressed and you know you need help then you still need help this video is only used for educational information so that improvements can occur in more aspects so yes there are other things we can do besides medication but this video is not intended for treating depression you can't still we need to go to the nearest psychiatrist and psychologist secondly treating depression can be this disclaimer is still treating depression can still require medication efforts
4:39 to increase serotonin other than medication are certainly good but at some points we still need medication especially for example in cases of severe depression until there are many complaints that are very disturbing it is very possible that we are intact medication Don't be later with medication because it might be that we need it to recover but just like the theme of the video I don't want to focus on that today we will learn together about how to increase serotonin in the brain without using medication other than medication Okay The first way to increase serotonin in the brain without medication There are several studies showing that bright light can increase serotonin in the brain, even bright white is used in countries with
5:24 four seasons to treat seasonal depression or depression caused by seasonal changes. Several studies also show that non-seasonal depression or depression that does not depend on the season may also have a good effect on the poser apex or exposure to Breath like this itself. That's why it's important for you to keep going out of the house to stay active outside the house even though depression forces you to stay inside free because light is also important to increase serotonin in the body. Some even suggest different studies, some even suggest staying awake at the same time to stay outside so we can get light besides bright
6:09 light. The second reason is that we need direct sunlight to increase vitamin D in the body as we know from elementary school lessons that vitamin D can appear in the body because of exposure to light in the body. The problem is that the more we are indoors, especially in the rainy season like this, this video of hypotension reaches Dwi so that exposure to sunlight is not too much, we are very susceptible to vitamin D deficiency. What is the relationship between vitamin D and depression? This is a very close relationship. Vitamin D deficiency actually increases our tendency to experience anxiety and depression. So going out at that time of day, for example, is not only important to get light. but it is
6:57 also important to get vitamin D in the body because vitamin D deficiency is closely related to the occurrence of depression the next way to increase serotonin in the brain without medication is by exercising here is closely related to physical movement physical movement you know So it's not sweeping not just tracing movements that mean real exercise exercise is closely related between the effects of movement the effect of exercise with increased serotonin in the brain not only serotonin but how other hormones also improve including for example the emergence of endorphins or other happy hormones or anxiolytic effects anxiety reduction effects also occur when people exercise is needed
7:42 regularly for us to be physically fit but also mentally the problem is when we experience depression often we want to move lose energy no motivation so it feels like exercising is not like that even though by exercising we actually experience better feelings that's why it is recommended here exercise can help increase serotonin in the brain what kind of exercise is good, doc what can you do that has appropriate access that is also safe for you the important thing is that we can do it safely and you are also able to do it consistently So you should not be forced to exercise must be horse riding for example if the horse riding place is far away it is not possible to find a
8:27 sport that is okay and accessible can routine and books can consistently do it does not have to be heavy jogging running ngejim that's okay too it's okay the next thing that is hypothesized to increase serotonin in the brain is protein consumption because serotonin is actually formed from tryptophan tryptophan is an amino acid so this Taufan point at the end can form several other neurotransmitters including electronics in it but not specifically serotonin there are many other neurotransmitters formed by tryptophan but the lack of amino acid tryptophan can cause us to also lack serotonin so a healthy diet is very important for treating depression in this case for example we ensure that the
9:13 protein in the food is sufficient also contains other healthy foods there are antioxidants in it for example the amount of fruit and vegetables is sufficient because the lack of diversity of fruit and vegetables can also disturb feelings so eating healthy becomes very important the problem when we experience depression we often want to eat delicious food and instant instant like ah jam food or fast food like that actually increases the tendency of someone to experience depression so even when we are depressed we want to eat like that the problem is that only right that makes me experience depression let's go back to healthy food fruit vegetables protein in
10:00 sufficient quantities especially if we can know there is a diet that contains tryptophan so if you are confused yes sufficient protein diet is good obviously bad mood phyllis serotonin can also increase based on social interaction so we are together interacting with friends colleagues family of course those who understand and who understand it can help us feel understood and a little better slowly by being understood we can share suffering It can be reduced indeed maybe they do not have the answer to your life problems but togetherness itself heals depression does make us feel like we want to be alone or we are destructive think we are making things difficult or troublesome for
10:46 others when in fact everyone is suffering everyone needs together we support each other in this world that is equally difficult so the assumption that I am a burden I have to stay away so that others are not burdened is not not entirely correct depression is lying to us that it seems as if I need to stay away from others so that others are not burdened with my life on the other hand maybe we need to restore social interaction better so that our feelings can be better now we know diet affects serotonin exercise affects serotonin social interaction affects serotonin light affects serotonin the problem Would you use the information available today to make changes Would you use the information
11:33 presented in today's session to make changes because often when information come we are busy continuously having information so information Jangki is so addicted to information How to cure depression without medication How to do this depression without medication when the answer has been given we stop there doing nothing Why because we think this information alone is enough to cure me the answer is not knowing that exercise can cure depression is not the same as doing exercise knowing that social interaction can improve feelings when experiencing depression is not the same as doing the social interaction knowing the information here is not the same as doing it so to increase serotonin in the body is not enough just to watch YouTube videos and
12:20 feel that we have changed no change occurs when we do it so after this video is closed take notes and get ready to make changes in your life that's all from me a performance doctor specializing in psychiatry Hopefully we can both learn to increase serotonin in the body that's from me thank you Hi your enthusiasm
