My experience was that it turned down the volume on the constant depression or agitation, but left my 'flash' emotions more or less unchanged. Meaning if a joke was funny I would laugh and enjoy it, but my usual manic brain drama that was going more or less all the time was much quieter. I didn't feel like it made me into a robot. I also felt that my quieter mind was less creative, but I suppose that's to be expected.
