Poop out is not understood simply because nobody really knows how the drugs work in the first place.
Serotonin is only one of dozens of key mood regulating chemicals. Some researchers have found evidence that the dirtier drugs (ie TCAs) actually poop out less. Targeting one brain chemical may alter the levels of other important neurotransmitters.
Dosage increase or reduction and or augmentation with another agent may help you get better.
May I ask what drug(s) you are taking, at what doses and what is your problem (i.e. sadness, apathy, anxiety etc.)
