We are learning things about the way that drugs act that we didn't know 20 years ago. Who knew that marajuanna would contain substance that promote neurogenesis, or that act as potent antipsychotic compounds?
The antidepressant effect of many conventional depression drugs can be significantly reduced by blocking the effect these drugs have on the opiate system. The effect of the TCA's, some of the SSRI's, and even tianeptine, are dependant, at least in part on the opiate system.
While it is true that you are going to an overabundantly "down to earth" type of description of opiates from ex-users, you will similarly notice that the SSRI withdrawl can similarly sour the minds of ex. "believers".
SSRI's pooped out on me and had excrutiating withdrawl, so what gives?
Individual milage will always vary.
You may want to look into anti-tollerance compounds and strategies.
