SSRIs work by numbing emotions?
Really?
What a bunch of unenlightened crap.
When SSRIs produce remissions, they quicken thought speed, bring clarity of thought, makes anergia disappear, reduces or eliminates anhedonia, makes foods taste better, makes music sound better. Colors are noticeably more saturated. Sighing and "air hunger" disappear. Impairments in reading speed and comprehension disappear. People regain their unimpaired intelligence and excel when they return to school. Memory impairments wane, although they are probably the last capacity to return. Critical thinking improves. People suddenly find work or matriculate in school for the first time in decades. People smile, tell jokes, and laugh.
Numbing emotions as the mechanism of action for SSRIs?
Let that crap be peddled elsewhere.

I dream of things that never were and ask why not.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
