I’m pretty sure this is backwards? SSRIs work because they are reuptake inhibitors, increasing the amount of serotonin available to receptor sites.

So it’s more like “I have a bunch of serotonin that my receptors are begging for but my brain is just like nah you don’t need that lemme take it from you lol tough it out”

I think. I’m not a chemist or a biologist. Just some barely educated depressed guy in the internet so I could be wrong

Drugs can help
