>basically anything that causes increased levels of cortisol secretion). I believe this also furthers my claim that 5-HT2 antagonism is an important antidepressant mechanism and could possibly save lives.
I feel very strongly about that as well.....
... in fact i believe it was stated that suicide risk was strongly correlated to an increase of 5HT2A neuroreceptors in the neocortex....
... keep in mind also that 5HT2A is responsible for "agitation", and agitation is considered a strong risk factor in suicide....
... anyways.. you should see if you can get $50k off the gov't, and do some research into it...
