The mind and body are part of an interweaving system, and so "mental illness" can come from physical causes, such as poisoning, poor diet or insomnia, just as "physical illness" can come from unhealthy thought patterns or trauma.
There is no separation between body and mind and so there is some truth to the idea that mental illness is caused by "chemical imbalances".
But the drug treatments for mental illness are likely to only enhance these imbalances because the synthetic products used are not native to the body and do not coalesce well with it and can create greater imbalance, particularly if too quickly removed after extended use.
There is more money in chemical, patentable medicine on a mass scale than natural medicine, and at times it may be the best short-term treatment option, but as a long-term approach to health it is generally a failure.
