Thats what I think although I can't say. It increases motivation and concentration so it could be that. On the other hand it helps me sleep better, so did lexapro, so that could be from the serotonin and maybe that is why? However lexapro never made me more motivated, so I'd guess 5 HT2C antagonism. Also when I increased to 5 mg I stopped wanting to eat for a couple days so the increase in 5 HT2C agonism probably started to kick in. One big downside is that both drugs give me headaches. I hope its tolerable.
