## Resource

Taking a short break from the antidepressants to talk about all of the receptors in the brain (and some outside) that I think about when I'm thinking about psychiatric medications. The next podcast is about tricyclic antidepressants and I think this is a good time to introduce this concept. The tricyclics have complicated interactions with these receptors as do the antipsychotics that we will talk about later, but most psychiatric medications do what they do through a variety of combinations and strengths at these receptors to include the MAOis that we talked about in the last episode. Let's learn more about them!
