What are some good books about drugs/antidepressants and their effects in the human mind? I'm writing a novel that deal with this in some parts and I'm worried my own experience won't be enough to fill the gaps.

Any kind of article or scientific study would be great too.

Well, you can look at the actual research papers themselves; most of which attest to two things.

1) That the whole industry is built upon the unproven Serotonin theory

2) That most anti-depressants are at best akin to placebos, whilst the worst have a whole host of side-effects. Exceptions are to be found in lithium/etc for serious shit; but most of the normal 'pills' a doctor will throw at people are the modern-day equivalent of a lobotomy.

Alex Shulgin published 2 books detailing his experiences with psychoactive drugs. Not sure if this is what youre seeking but it seems like a good read. I haven't read PIHKAL or TIHKAL but they seem to be really interesting. Hell I might just start them this weekend now that I think about it. Thanks OP.

The book is called The Doors of Perception

My diary desu

Antidepressants really worked for me, but now I have a new problem- I lived my whole life without experiencing pleasure, and now that I'm capable of it I have to learn to deal with temptation. Most people start that at 5, I'm trying to learn how to handle it all at once at 25.

Lithium is for bipolar disorder/manic depression isn't it? That's not the same as what anti-depressants are for.

The Doors of Perception is about mescaline. That is so completely different from antidepressants.
I'm sure that guy meant Brave New World because everyone takes drugs to be happy, I agree with>>7799070 though.
Soma isn't like antidepressants.

Just watch conspiracy videos on Youtube.
