THe normal receptor has a kind of raindrop shape.
One of the studies that Breggin sites showed that under certain conditions, mice exposed to SSRI's had serotonin receptors that resembled a corkscrew, ie a twisted/deformed nonsymetrical shape.
As med empowered noted, serotonin releasing agents such as ecstacy have been implicated in similar morphological changes.
Althought Lilly tried to discredit the studies, I found their arguments particularly weak.
I'm not really a conspiracy theorist, but there are good reasons that a government might not want people to freak out about their anti-freak out meds.
