St James said . . .
>Depression is not caused by a lack of serotonin, it is the regulation of serotonin that
improves mood.

This should be engraved somewhere, or made into a stamp. Another way of saying this came from someone a while ago . . ."Low serotonin in the synapse is not a cause but a symptom of depression"
Those of us who poop out on SSRIs know all about the folly of concentrating exclusively on "serotonin levels"
