The thing is that you can mess around with the neurotransmitters and HPA axis, but it has been shown in tests that if you block the neurotrophic effects of the meds, you block the behavioral effects of the meds. Especially in cases of risk avoidance, and stress induced behavioral helplessness.
Infact, it can be shown that clinically more effective AD's have more effect on growth factors, than do drugs will fewer neurotrophic effects.
With ECT being the formost in its induction of BDNF and clinical effect.
