A certain portion of the population have a certain MAO gene which means they naturally have much lower levels of MAO, this means they have higher levels of serotonin norepinephrine and dopamine.

Do these people's brain cells corkscrew in responce to their own naturally higher levels of serotonin, of course not. If you read closely the doses used in that study were 50-100 times the MAXIUMUM (80mg) human doses. Of course the brain cells are going to die with this amount. YOu faint if you get too much oxygen.

The idea is to bring your serotonin levels into a normal range, you know this is probably true when you start to feel better and I doubt there will be brain dammage as a consequence.
