(I wish I had amisulpride 5 years ago...mmm...) I no longer have it, it is finally gone. And it doesn't feel like on Klonopin where I had ups and downs with the anxiety, and when I woke up I had SA/SP. Nowadays I NEVER have any negative thoughts involving social encounters. I'm so glad this med worked.I'm glad for you too man!
So you feel confident in all social encounters?
> As far as depression it lifts mood up moderately. I use Ultram at 200mg from time to time because the combination definitely wipes out the depression completely.

> But my last problem is motivation and anergy. I'm looking for an add-on to amisulpride to increase my motivation/energy. Been experimenting with Adderall, would like to have a trial with Adrafinil or the best med one could get: Amineptine (although VERY expensive). I'm also thinking of trying Selegiline (Jumex) and Enada NADH. Of course not all of them at the same time. My order would be: Selegiline first, then NADH, then Adrafinil. Well, if at any point of my trials , amineptine prices would drop to a decent level - I've heard that the combo of amisulpride and amineptine is outrageous - it turns dysthymic person into totally euthymic outgoing social-guy.Hmmm...I could recommend a med called ... NARDIL! I bet you knew that was coming!
> As for me taking amisulpride - It kicked in at around 4 weeks. I've been taking 50mg/day of it (my pdoc said to take 100 mg but I read all the studies and figured out 100 would be too much).I take it you split a 100mg pill in half? We only have 100mg + 200mg pills in Aussie land here.
> No side effects, but pdoc warned me of increased Prolactin so I'll need to check it out in near future.
At that dose I reckon you're preety safe, but i guess it's better to be safe than soory, as they say.

> If ya got any more qs - go ahead bro, I can talk about amisulpride all day since it has been such a wonderful med. I wish all you guys would print out the dysthymia + amisulpride studies, bring it to your pdocs, and show them that NOT SSRI, NOT old tricyclics, but DOPAMINERGICS are effective for dysthymia,melancholy,social phobia. I'm not kidding about printint out the studies -Already done it! My doc is very open minded and willing for me to choose my own treatment. I just got some Amisulpride- will be trying it soon.
that's what I did and I know if I hadn't done it - my pdoc would prescribe me something different.
>You got to be in charge bro!
Congratulations again mate, and take Care!
