I agree..my testing with Tianeptine has led me to believe that ultimately the efficacy of ADs has not little to do with their direct manipulation of transmitters but some other downstream effect.
I say this, in part, because I always responded quite well to SSRIs - they knocked out my anxiety and greatly alleviated depression but had side effects that I couldnt tolerate.
So a drug that seemingly works the opposite of SSRIs left me doubting I'd receive any benefit, in fact, I was prepared to feel much worse.
However, some two weeks after starting treatment I'd say it's actually working better than SSRIs w/ no side effects.
Go figure.
