Scott-you need to write a paper about your theory. You don't have to have your degree to write a research paper, or to even have it published. You are still in school, right? This is what you need to do-contact those who have done research needed to support your theory, and those from professional organizations (NIMH, for ex.) using your school email address. Tell them you are facilitating research and that you need more focused information (to support your theory). Especially with the government, there are specific liaisons for students/researchers to contact for info. In exchange for offering you information, they will most likely ask for a copy of your final paper. You should write, develop, and share your theory. You never know who may take interest or if it will get published. I've read of more than one instance where someone unknown has made a breakthrough in theory, but they were not given credit becaues years later, some well-known researcher published it first. Later, it was proven the unknown had already solved the problem or developed the theory.

This is not grandiouse thinking; in conducting my current research, I couldn't believe the level of people who want a copy of my findings (even after I tell them I'm an undergraduate student, that this is my first research project, and I'm not affiliated with any think tank/research org). This is pretty standard among researchers--sharing information; give and take. Quite possibly, the person you are sharing your findings with may become interested in your project, and things will develop from there.

For this specific issue--I can't think of why institutions would want to expend resources to research this topic. Who is going to fund it? Certainly not the government or the drug companies. Unless in doing so, they wish to develop a drug for "SSRI Discontinuation Syndrome", which will become a new syndrome added to the list of new syndromes (some caused by drugs). My two cents, or two dollars.
