Now, a huge dollop of serotonin is a whole other can o' peas in
terms of making you feel good, if I understand the pharmacodynamics
of ecstasy...

See, students have to be set straight on THAT one, too! MDMA/Ecstasy
does cause a flood of serotonin release, but so does fenfluramine, and
fenfluramine doesn't feel like MDMA/Ecstasy. So the flood of
serotonin release, on its own, is not what underlies the ecstasy of
Ecstasy.
YOU knew that, but most students don't.
