Why don’t we know how antidepressants work yet?

Hello everyone,
I recently got put on some SSRI for my worsening suicidal ideation and honestly I can't believe the difference it's made. It's like a version of myself that I find hard to believe existed, but can draw parallels with the version of me before I got depressed, etc.
I'm just curious how I should be viewing these changes in me: Are they really me without depression/anxiety or is it a more lurid exaggerated version of that?
Any other thoughts on SSRIs in general welcome! I'm interested in seeing Tildians' thoughts on them :)
