I have a few problems with tryptophan depleation
with SSRI relapse. People that have the illness are significantly more prone to fall into depression than people who do not. Their whole brain is more fraile and sensitive. Also what causes depression on one person may not in another person.

Mental health is really a continuom. You can have extremely mentally healty people that may take a lot more than simple tryptophan depleation to get them down. They probably have stores of endorphens and PEA, and who knows what to keep them going.

I think the chemical imballence theory is fairly sound. Remember the days back in the 50's when people were treated for high blood pressure with reserpine. This depleates all three monoamines, and has a very high propensity to cause depression even in the most mentally healthy.
