Thank you a million for taking the time and having the patience to break down the reuptake, blocking situation for me in plain English. I basically got it except for one little part:
Regarding the Serotonin aspect - you said that one of the serotonin receptors at Neuron B is the 5ht-2a receptor. This receptor does different things when serotonin is sitting on it. Some of those things aren't so nice. So we like to have a widget that sits on top of that 5ht-2a receptor at B and says "scat" to the serotonin -- my question dangling now is what does the 5ht-2a receptor do that is "not so nice" and what is the widget that is on top of that receptor at B that tells the Serotonin to go away?!
Thanks ever so much, Janelle
