A *lot* of medicinal herbs (including marajuanna) have constituents that agonist 5-ht1a and antagonize 5-ht2a.
Even melatonin potentiats 5-ht1a receptors responces, and lowers 5-ht2a mediated neurotransmission. Anandamide (the 'bliss chemical') does the same thing
I'd hate to think that many psychiatric drugs could be summed up to these two activities :)
