Hi McPac,
Just thought you may like to know that other docs also know of the high SSRI anger effect..like it is a known thing. I have also read that too low serontonin causes this..but mostly isn't it depression with too low serotonin?
I THINK it is because the serotonin follows an undesired pathway..and I guess you have to either alter something like exercise, diet, supplements or other drugs to force it into the correct pathway, or get a new body....easy hey!<g>
No idea of anything beyond that. Hope you find your doc can help with with soemthing to add or change to.
I remember (a no longer practising) doc(not a pdoc, more into metabolism) who has commented on it, in a thyroid forum she used to answer queries on..so I copied some of her posts on serotonin. Not really informative as she used to answer so many posts every day, and this is not really her area of expertise
If you want to read them , I copied some posts to

Just thought it may help you ...I don't know if anyone could really advise on what changes you would need to prevent this reaction, it may not even be possible...in which case a different type of drug is probably needed, or a combo.
I know, not much help, really know nothing about this...
Jan
