I understand what you are saying. I have been on celexa for like 5 years (which is extremely selective) and so I notice the slightest changes
Ie, If you were to give me celexa,paxil,proxac,or zoloft I would be able to tell you which one I took.
I will admit that zoloft led to apathy like celexa, but not quite as much.
You are also right about the serotogenic effect surpressing the dopamine effect. This will happen to a certain extent.
And yes there is the effect of norepinephrine/DE corelease with wellbutrin.
I rank the SSRIs in this order for most apathy inducing to least apathy inducing
celexa,
luvox
paxil
zoloft
prozacPaxil and prozac made me irritable (they have effects on NE ??) zoloft made me the most caring. I was unmotivated yes, but I was still able to process emotion of others.
Infact, on zoloft and cofeee I felt really normal.
