Kinda like how benzodiazapines reduce my anxiety, but also make me less sharp mentally. So far I haven't found a drug that doesn't exact its price. The drug companies advertise how an SSRI can "correct an imbalance" in neurotransmitters, and I've heard p-docs make similar statements.
I wondered why the FDA allows this.
