Hi Linkadge.

I am inclined to agree with you.

How do you think SSRIs work?

Sometimes, I think the inhibition of serotonin reuptake leads to a reregulation of receptors and negative feedback loops such that neural activity more approximates a normal dynamic as opposed to an amplified one. Maybe not.
