How could a biological cause be spreading? There must be multiple causes.
" Many questions remain, including understanding the root causes behind these biomarkers". Research is ongoing.

They looked for biomarkers in 42 people and compared it against 41 other people in a control group. It's a single study.

Something makes me feel like this is BS, even though I find it interesting.
All physiological studies need to be peer-reviewed, duplicated, and investigated in various ways. Further study is always needed.

When you can work from home, have any food you want delivered, and own a sex toy can we really be expected to NOT over-isolate?
Only one sex story?
Well I have 3, and I am isolating from existence with a partner, so +3 (+5?) sex toys. She's got 2 currently (+1 me) so I think im winning.

Even if there are biological markers that increase risk, making kinder and more supportive societies is still gonna be the only real cure.
Kindness is absolutely important, but certain chemical imbalances will likely need treatment. A cleaner environment helps, too.

BTW, environmental chemicals can cause problems in the brain. That can also be described as a chemical imbalance.
Interesting. I was never in the medical field, but I've done and been involved in many controlled experiments. I've often said 1/
That if I had to do a controlled study on humans, especially in the psychiatric vein, my head would explode. As I understand it, 2/
Certain pills control certain psychiatric conditions. That implies chemicals affect the brain. Was there a chemical defect? 3/
