Yes, I agree, that is a good point.
The doctors would have you believe that this drug is a computer designed magic bullit for depression, but this is so far from the truth it is rediculous. They screen for these drugs by pumping a mouse full of them for a few weeks and see if they swim longer than the sober mice.
I think they achieve the majority of their short term effects by activating the HPA axis, and mimicing the effects of sleep deprivation.
