It accelerates the reuptake of serotonin rather than inhibiting it. This presumably leaves less serotonin in the synaptic cleft (gap). Tianeptine has other properties that might account for its efficacy in treating depression, but I don't remember what they are. Keep in mind that a person can respond to one SSRI and yet have another make them feel worse. How do we explain that? Of course, there is an explanation. One day, it will become well-understood. Until then, we are limited to educated guesses and empirical observations (trial-and-error).

Anywhow I have tried various methods .. Increase MAO.. Increase SERT... many methods... I have came to the conclusion I either have too many serotonin receptors or sensitive serotonin receptors IE they dont get disentized.. So this would mean my only soloution is to take an serotonin antagonist . Hence this thread.
So I have found the soloution to my problem.. My only question is is there a better serotonin antagonsit than Mianser or Mirtazapine? From what I can tell thats a no.. So im going for Mianserin....
I dont care what that lamdage guy says he doesent know my situation : Im not delusional.. I didnt come to the conclusion that serotonin is my problem in a day.. Its been years I have been trying various methods ...Yes I tried tianeptine and it gave me some relief.... But my serotonin receptors need to be blocked for FULL relief.
