from my understanding, SSRIs don't create more serotonin, they stop the brain from re-uptaking as much. it makes it so that no large amount can be recycled or released. so that is why you become pretty much emotionless and numb. because you're emotions and censored, for lack of better wording.
it is also to my understanding that you can't FORCE a brain to create serotonin. 5htp is just a pre-cursor, and by ensuring your body has an ample amount, you ensure that your brain produces as much as it can. but it doesn't cause your brain to make more than it would naturally.
so how would tricking the brain into thinking it's creating more help? if the serotonin isn't there, you're mood isn't affected.
so if your theory is correct, i see no benefit from taking SSRIs.

Most of your statements start with "from my understanding" - meaning that your statements are YOUR - and ONLY YOUR understanding. Until I see any credible information cited from credible sources, your statements will ONLY mean YOUR understanding to everyone else who reads them. That brings me to this next question: do you NOT "understand" that some people don't "understand" things the exact same way you do? You both have good points but don't you also understand that no one cares that you should be arguing about something you both have a different understanding about?

You make no sense to yourself and that's why other people don't make sense to you. It's an illness of the head... it cannot be treated. The reason I say this is because EVERYONE makes sense in their own way... and you can't say they don't make sense when they are making all the sense in the world they can... except that every person does it with a personal and modified approach. Oh, and the last time I checked, which was probably in about grade 2 - capitalization and punctuation were part of proper English... so what's this 'poor' English you talk about?
