Under pressure
I’ve noticed that a lot of people get sad or nostalgic when they get on a plane.
Previously I’ve always put this down to the effect of leaving home, but…
Noting that the cabin pressurization puts me to sleep, I’m wondering if it’s not the applied pressure that allows the mood swings?
If it were then maybe pressurization and depressurization could be applied to the treatment of depression. Aka diving chamber.
They’re the same word after all (depression), and maybe the solution has been staring us in the face all the time.
Query, do deep sea divers suffer more or less depression than the average population?
