Hi Cache-Monkey. I really appreciate your reply. The reason I've been interested in drugs that antagonize this receptor is that I thought I might be able to get some of the benefits of serotonin WITHOUT the apathy and amotivational syndromes that are so common with many ssri's. Celexa was the worst in that respect. A few others were similar in effect but not as deadening as Celexa. Yes, I've read about that m-CPP metabolite of Serzone and Trazodone. If only they'd make Trazadone without that metabolite! Apparently m-CPP also causes INCREASED cortisol levels, which is the last thing I need right now.
