Cam correct me if wrong but I was a psych RN and gave the groups at night. We would discuss how the SSRI's worked. I used to compare it to a spaceship landing on the receptor and the receptor would keep it grounded so to spreak so the receptor would suck up the serotonin. When it was completed it the SSRI would then exit. So now there was a soaked in serotonin synapse of receptor site.
I did always feel that once the receptors got used to being "given" extra serotonin that the receptor didn't make as much on it's own. Hence why poop out might occurr. Am I close? Phillipa
