SSRIs work by increasing the amount of serotonin in your brain. But they can also have side effects like constipation (the internet says SSRIs block acetylcholine?), and you can’t take NSAIDs too because of a risk of stomach bleeding. How do SSRIs do those things if they are focused on serotonin? Does acetylcholine use the same receptors as serotonin? I’m also interested in how they cause other side effects.
