> > I really appreciate your response. Going along with your reasoing, do you thing I need a decrease in Serotonin instead of an increase, which happens with SSRI's? From what I've read, Stablon is the only thing that does that. I can get this through an online pharmacy. I was also considering Stelazine or Solian (Amisulpride). Do you think any of these 3 would be useful?

> Though Stablon is called a serotonin reuptake enhancer, I think that can be misleading. The serotonin is still there, just in a different place. It doesn't reduce serotonin per se. Stablon has a multitude of functions apart from anything it does on serotonin. Viewing clinical studies and anecdotal reports here over the years yields two general conclusions: 1)It is generally good for treating anxiety, especially in the clinical trials; 2)A minority of people have reported it made them too hyper. But the overall view is that it is known for anti-anxiety.

> Amisulpride I found to be excellent anti-anxiety. The first couple days I think it made me feel more hyper. After that, excellent peace, good social comfort. I tried various doses between 25mg and 50mg. Weird, but I also found it diminished aches and pains like magic. That was an unexpected surprise I had never heard about. Sure, maybe we all know it is a dopamine enhancer at low doses and a dopamine antagonist at higher doses, but ya know, we've barely scratched the surface in identifying all the things our meds do. Sometimes I can't help but wonder if the things we think they do might just be minor players in what's really going on.

> Stelazine was spoken of highly by an international psychiatrist expert. I think it was Stahl but I'm not sure. It is a very old AP. I don't know much about it, but I think Amisulpride is probably a cleaner safer one. Not an expert on that though.

Hi bleauberry,

Did you find that Amisulpride was good for generalized anxiety or simply for social anxiety? Most of the information I've found is that it's great for SA, but that's not my problem.

As far as Stelazine vs. Amisulpride, I think you're right about it being cleaner.
