I think it depends on the med. Haldol gave me "pseudo-Parkinson's" as my nurse practitioner put it, but supposedly lithium prevents Alzheimer's and SSRI's promote cell growth in the hippocampus.
I know SSRIs work by blocking reuptake of serotonin so more of it's available/it doesn't get re-absorbed by the nerve cells.
