Well 10mg of Zyprexa always seems to help my depression either on it's own or added to SSRIs although I must admit it seems to work better with an SSRI.
I don't think it works by it's action on 5HTP3 receptors because I've also (and am trying Mirtazapine/Remeron and it does nothing for my depression.
My gut feeling about Zyprexa is I'm getting an antideppressant affect because of it's affect on the dopamine receptors. When I take it I can definitely feel stimulation at the front of my brain. I used to feel this sort of stimulation years ago when I responded well to just ADs.
