linkage -
Can you link me to studies showing antidepressants stabalize BOTH the HPA axis and the immune system? Thank You.
Regarding Tianepine, a serotonin reuptake accelerater - I would imagine that regular SSRI's and Tianepine work the same because of some upregulation or downregulation of certain receptors, and Tianepine just ultimately does the same thing (with a different profile, of course - perhaps better). Its like weather you speed up serotonin creation & destruction, or stop it from being destroyed and let it overflow your brain, results in the same antidepressant effects, probably through upregulation & downregulation of specific receptors.
all the best,
