Sure. In the South Seas the sociability aspect of it is one of the main parts of the Kava drinking

I think I may have started the Kava/Serotonin depletion thing. I was relaying information given me by my pDoc - YMMV.
So Kava - enjoy its quality in moderation - esp. if already on SSRIs. (Have you ever felt REALLY tired the day after a Kava party, BTW?). And yes, used once in awhile, it has been fun for me - Mrs FP (Who now registered herself as "Mother to an angel") loves it too.
Hope this helps.
