I didn't know that 5HT agonism was implicated in cognitive impairment. That really stinks, 'cause that sort of thing is the primary symptom of my depression.
I wish I knew whether my problems were caused by swallowing these compounds for so long or by quitting too many times, causing some kind of "kindling," similar to what happens in epilepsy.
Not that knowing would change much at this point. Like you I'm dependent on meds.
