"Effects of serotonin deficiency"

I attempted to edit out the typos and grammatical problems with this section, but it is still weak. The lengthy discussion of the effects on newborn and maturing mice seems to go nowhere, and the last paragraph is really more of a list than a paragraph. I don't know about others, but I was fooled into thinking the subject of the paragraph was going to be the relation between serotonin and spiritual experience, but then it just sort of abruptly drops that line of thinking and goes on to depression, and then OCD. I didn't want to do a logic edit, because I haven't seen the sources, and it seems like more material is needed, or maybe a complete change of format. Anyway, I hope someone will take a stab at it.

"Antidepressants"

Questions the efficacy of regulating Serotonin to treat depression and proposes an alternate theory to its behavior with no citations, and the last paragraph of the section reads like a series of non-sequiteurs. I don't know enough to correct it, but know sketchy writing when I see it. January 31, 2010
