> Well... all I can say is that if that truly is the case, and dopamine is a promising AD, than that is truly pathetic and sad. It really is.

I wouldnt put it quite like that. Pure dopamine antidepressants I dont think is a good idea. However, with many of the current ADs like SSRIs, as you increase serotonin dopamine levels go down gradually and get that poop out of affective "flattening" many complain about on SSRIs.

To solve this problem maybe pharmaceutical companies should try harder to bring a few RIMA MAOIs to the US market, like moclobemide. That would solve the dopamine problem pretty good.
