I am not saying they are for everybody. But they could be useless. I know with my form of depression. Levels of seretonin,dopamine and NE are not a factor. Its a dysfunction in my circadian rythmn. Monominergic theories have been around for 50 + years and they are no closer to being proven than ever. Keep well, look after yourselves.
> ... the basic differences between re-uptake (blockage?) of SEROTONIN vs. NOREPHINEPHRINE vs. DOPAMINE? What I'm trying to ask (even this question is not easy to phrase!) is what beneficial effects is each of these re-uptakes supposed to have?
