Abstract

Depression is a disease that concerns a growing group of people: children, youth, adult and the elderly. Statistics indicate that 5 up to 20% of the population of the globe suffer from it. Women suffer from this disease four times more often than men. Depression is such a mental state in which the patient has a deep sense of meaninglessness of life and sees the world in the gloomy colors. Such a person is depressed, their mood affects the job, interpersonal relationships, and learning process. They have a feeling of hopelessness, worthlessness, pessimism and sadness. In many cases patients suffering from depression contemplate or attempt suicide. They cannot notice the solution of their problems. Moreover, they cannot imagine their future, if they were stopped in time. For such people only the past and their past failures matter. Time stopped for them. In addition to endogenous depression, there is also autumn-winter depression, which is a seasonal disease. The first symptoms appear in early autumn. The improvement of the patients’ mental health is observed from February whereas the next symptoms of the disease appear spontaneously in March and April. Winter depression is caused by a prolonged night in autumn and winter and this fact results in the prolonged synthesis of melatonin by the pineal gland, which affects the development of depression.

Highlights

  • Depression is a disease that concerns a growing group of people: children, youth, adult and the elderly

  • The biological mass has been utilized by nature to create an electronic device working analogically to technical electronic systems, but in on the basis of organic semiconductors, pioezo- and pyroelectrics

  • The device is powered by chemical energy of a metabolic origin, by electromagnetic energy received among things by melanin, which combines with the photoelectric effects, as well as by thermal and mechanical energy converted by piezo- and pyroelectrics into electric energy [7]

Summary

BIOELECTRONICAL CONCEPTION OF THE WINTER DEPRESSION

The current biochemical model fails to provide a definite recognition of both nature of life and human psychological functions. In an alternating electric field proteins, amino acids, DNA, RNA, as well as plant and animal tissues are subjects of electrostriction and become quantum generators of phonons, that is the acoustic wave Life is a result of all the chemical, electrical, magnetic, optical and acoustic events occurring in the living organism, in the system of organic semiconductors, piezo- and pyroelectrics [5]. This means that biological tissues have ample capacity for activating electrons, generating fields and for constant. Changes in the intensity of photon emission are functionally connected with disturbances of homeostasis and their measurements specify the state of organism vitality and the capacity for environmental adaptation [14]
