The TRUTH on Anti-Depressants

Psychiatric drugs add chemicals to the brain and the brain's natural response is to make adaptations to level things out because of those introduced chemicals.
Dr Helen Fisher, Ph.D. reviewed the brain scans of 32 people who were madly in love and discovered high levels of dopamine, a naturally occurring chemical associated with the euphoric and obsessive emotions involved in romance. Antidepressants called SSRIs (including Prozac and Zoloft) boost levels of another brain chemical called serotonin, which suppresses dopamine.
Dr. Fisher and a colleague, Dr. Anderson J. Thomson Jr., have studied the brains of people in love and gathered an abundance of research from the last 25 years on the neurological basis of romance. Three brain systems, all interrelated, the researchers say, control lust, attraction and attachment. Each runs on a different set of chemicals. Lust is fueled by androgens and estrogens. Attachment is controlled by oxytocin and vasopressin. And attraction, they say, is driven by high levels of dopamine and norepinephrine, as well as low levels of serotonin. As a result, they say, increasing levels of serotonin with antidepressants can cripple the sex drive but also set off an imbalance among the three systems.
The war on love is a real thing, they wage chemical warfare and attack the fertility of both males and females through endocrine disruption, combat that with a uprising population on psychiatric drugs that inhibit your ability to feel love, that’s a recipe for disaster.
