Interesting, I wonder if MCPP, a metabolite of trazodone which is also a 5-ht2a/c agonist might participate in the therapeutic properties of the drug.
Many psychiatric drugs are 5-ht2a/c antagonists, so it's hard to reconcile their effects when 5-ht2a agonists are apparently effective for a similar set of disorders.
I read an article about how LSD did *not* share the same lasting antidepressant effects that psilocybin and that researchers had developed analogues of psilocybin which had antidepressant but not hallucinogenic effects.
