I'm intrigued by the concept of drugs that alter the personality. Here are two examples I've come across tonight that are quite intriguing.
Paxil (an SSRI) lowers neuroticism and boosts extroversion: http://www.cnn.com/2...nality.changes/
Psilocybin boosts openness: http://yourlife.usat...term/50602264/1
I have no qualms about taking either substance, but for the sake of staying on-topic, let's stay away from cost/benefit analysis of taking a drug for personality changes.
Any other examples you've come across, either personally or through research? If you've taken either an SSRI or shrooms, I want to hear what your personal experience was like. Did you notice any of the personality changes mentioned above?
