> CalvaryHill, just wondering what you know about treating ADHD with serotonergic manipulation. As far as I've heard, (and in my drugging experience), SSRIs and such are useless for relieving ADHD symptoms.Well...not exactly true....Serotonin is *Very* important....New research indicates that Ritalin, previously thought to only act on dopamine, actually acts on the serotonin system too.
