Health Update: Do SSRIs Damage the Brain? | Long-Term Effects of Antidepressants

Serotonin is known as the “feel good”
neurotransmitter that contributes to overall happiness and a
stable mood. It is produced naturally in the brain.


One of the many problems with drugs like selective serotonin
reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) is that when you take them long-term
they begin to wear out and damage the serotonin receptors on your
nerves. The SSRIs stop working as a result, so the patient is
prescribed a second or third drug that works in what is called a
“cocktail.”


Dr. McCollum breaks down how these drugs affect our brains and
impact our nerve functioning, and what the long-term consequences
are of taking these drugs.


He also shares some natural ways to increase serotonin in the
brain, such as when we help other people and are working towards
goals.
