why is LSD hallucinagenic and SSRIs are not?

Posted by chess on March 3, 2005, at 22:42:29

SSRIs (prozac, lexapro) increase the effect of serotonin in the brain, and LSD also increases the effect of serotonin in the brain, but SSRI's don't cause hallucinations like LSD does. Anyone know why LSD has a hallucinagenic effect but SSRIs don't even though they both increase the effect serotonin in the brain?
