Is that true that we aren't allowed to discuss non-FDA approved nootropics? I don't think so.
I've recently had great results from amisulpride and to a lesser extent amineptine the latter has more wierd side effects and is shorter acting, more abusable but amisulpride is fairly harmless from what I can tell.
I also had sleep problems from effexor & wellbutrin & stimulants just made me more tense & overfocused which is my tendency anyways. I figure that was the norepenephrine I've got too much of. Coming off effexor I was almost manic on a dopamine rush, I was so happy to have my feelings back & able to really feel pleasure though I didn't know I was missing it while on.
Amisulpride gives me a sweet feeling, not anxious like the stimulants. It acts only on DA. At low doses it increases DA, at high doses it inhibits DA for schitzophrenics. I was taking low doses. It really seemed to help with motivation & was such a relief to actually feel good. I tried for a few weeks & am going to talk to my doc about getting it prescribed today (not optimistic).
