John,
Yes, I did become impotent on Amisulpride. Doses were 50mg, then 100mg, and then back to 50mg. Darn frustrating. So I quit. And then I got real depressed. Couldn't endure it. I had no choice but to start Amisulpride again. I craved feeling good. I figured I would take drug holidays for love-making. But then I thought, what about 25mg instead of 50? So far so good. I have the same good response as 50mg, maybe even better, but no sign of impotence. In my experience, dosing Amisulpride is tricky. 25mg has turned out to be the best. Good response, no side effects.
Adrafinil also caused me some loss of desire in love-making. I didn't expect that. Completely by accident I discovered that one dose of SAM-e (200mg) has eliminated that side effect. Very cool. I like happy accidents. :-) Because of all these intricate finnicky things, my cocktail has ended up being something I never would have imagined. But it works. Everything seems to be working in synergy. The sum is more than the components combined, if that makes any sense. And doses are so small I marvel at how well this thing works.
300mg Adrafinil (at breakfast)
25mg Amisulpride (at breakfast)
200mg SAM-e (mid-morning, with water, empty stomach)
7.5mg Remeron (evening)My only side effect is that usual hour-long hangover first thing in the morning, typical of Remeron. Other than that, real good response, no side effects, and a healthy love life. Each ingredient serves a purpose, and each ingredient seems to enhance the good of each other ingredient. The sum is more than all combined.
John
