i was wondering what drugs may actually increase cingulate cortex activity or of the included relevant parts. it seems to be implicated in complusive hoarding, a serious problem of mine. heres a link... it has a 'neurobiology' section:

it also seems that this may be a region that really hurts peoples ability to express emotion, articulate, assess situations and perform tasks. it seems that overactivity is linked to depression, but it seems like it may be an oversimplification, thus the numbing effects of SSRIs. it is may be what makes you feel the depression as opposed to the all to common and ignored scenario of knowing that you are depressed, but are simply too numb to feel or express anything.
