Your endocrine system desperately trying to remind your brain that serotonin production is actually pretty important, but your brain just dismissing it as trivial! The perfect biochemical betrayal happening inside all of us with depression. Your hormonal system is literally screaming "Hey, remember that neurotransmitter responsible for happiness, appetite regulation, and sleep cycles?" while your brain responds with "If you forgot, then it wasn't important." Spoiler alert: It was VERY important. That sad kid in a sports uniform is your serotonin levels after your brain's executive decision.
