No it not. There is a big difference between releasing ( as chocolate does) and inhibiting reuptake ( such as SSRI’s and MAOI’s).

There is a big difference in how it works, but not in relevant effect. If you are trying to create artificial happiness, it is not less artificial because you happened to use a household food item, than a household toiletry, than a household liquor, than a household drug.
