My theory is that our brains know homeostasis and are constantly striving to get back to their own personal natural state, albeit depressed. Medication is an external influence which may work for a while but sooner or later the 'natural' functioning of our diseased brain is going to be reestablished. In terms of neurotransmittors I believe the brain is working against them and its only a matter of time before the depressed state is reestablished. Not very scientific I know but just a hunch I have.
