What exactly am I wrong about? Absolutly nothing....
Anti-depressents reduce synapses in your brain. This reduces your total amount of thoughts, including rational thoughts. This has many different effects on different people. It could turn innocent people into criminals, and it could turn criminals into innocent people.
I never said anti-depressents "work".... I simply said they reduce your synapses in your brain, and make you more dumb. They also can reduce stressfull thoughts, and thoughts of suicide. However, they can also reduce rational thoughts and only leave the suicidal thoughts where they were.
I actually tell people NOT to take anti-depressents because they do more harm then good.

SSRI's have nothing to do with reducing thought. They regulate mood. Mood affects thought.

Again, SSRI's do not reduce anything in the brain. They block; Inhibit.

A little pedantic don't you think badw0lf?
If they 'regulate' mood, they directly affect thought too, since mood affects thought..surely?
It's a bit like saying a car has nothing to do with car crashes. A car regulates speed, and speed affects how severe a car crash is. Obviously, if you take away the prime mover, the car...the speed and crash effects, become moot.

WRONG...
SSRI's BLOCK re-absortion of serotonin into the presynaptic neuron. The reason serotonin is re-absorbed is so that your brain can use it again for the next transmission. Blocking serotonin from being re-absorbed reduces neuro activity.
Serotonin is passed from the presynaptic neuron to the postsynaptic neuron (between the synapse) which triggers a transmission/signal (loosely described as a "thought").
The serotonin which does not make it to the postsynaptic neuron is either destroyed by enzymes or re-absorbed into the presynaptic neuron so it can be used again in the next transmission.
When you "BLOCK" re-absortion of serotonin into the presynaptic neuron, you REDUCE NEURO ACTIVITY. You reduce THOUGHT.
I was using the term synapse loosely as a verb to describe neuro activity happening between the synapses of the brain.
What I should have said is that it reduces neuro activity. It reduces brain power. It reduces thought.
Try agian...

Ridiculous amounts
So if I made that video, but didn't make money, it'd be credible?
But then if I started making money, it'd no longer be credible?
If you had any idea the time it takes to do investigative journalism, and then to turn that into articles / videos / etc, you'd speak differently. Check out the AGI Manhattan Project for an inkling of an idea. I've never made money from my work, but if I decide to it shouldn't change the value of the research and reporting.
Player hating about if someone makes money instead of addressing the content is called an ad hominem attack. And as I always say, people are player haters until they're themselves hated on.
