rydellen,
Can you provide any background info regarding SSRI's and enhanced brain plasticity?
I have never heard of such a claim. I am always eager to read new research.
Even your statement : < My doctor told me that its beneficial to start SSRI at once after a TBI or persistent concussions. Most patients with prolonged PCS will develop a depression and SSRI from early on will reduce to depression and therefor give your brain more power to heal while it can (mostly the time near the injury). >
I have never heard such a claim. Taking SSRi's is not a lightweight decision. I am concerned about your doctors cavalier attitude toward prescribing SSRI's.
