I thought it was widely accepted by now that the serotonin thesis was a bullshit story spread, among others, by Al Gore’s wife, maybe in good faith, maybe not.

I thought it was widely accepted by now that the serotonin thesis was a bullshit story spread, among others, by Al Gore’s wife, maybe in good faith, maybe not.
Edit: Tipper Gore; I did not remember her name (I’m not from the US).
I read she was a big fan of the serotonin theory in a book (whose title I don’t remember at the moment).
- dotcoma 4y agoEdit #2: The book is: Lost Connections: Uncovering the Real Causes of Depression, by Johann Hari In chapter 2: The year after I swallowed my first antidepressant, Tipper Gore -- the wife of Vice President Al Gore -- explained to the newspaper USA Today why she had recently become depressed. Just so that it's clear: I have nothing against Al Gore -- except that he lost the election.
