This is exactly what happened to me. I started ami about two months ago. If you look at a list of negative symptoms of schizophrenia I have all of them. Sorry I *had* all of them. Amisulpride has been a miracle for me so far.

I started out at 25mgs for a week and noticed more obsessive thinking. I started going up in dosage every week until I got to 150mgs, and I noticed a worsening of my symptoms. I quit the drug alltogether for about two days and restarted at 12.5mgs and WHAM! Within two to three hours I could tell that it was going to work. Like flip_flop said I got somewhat of a stimulant effect the first few weeks at the low dose. It was subtle but nonetheless it was definatley stimulant-like. I had insomnia during this time. Right now the stimulant properties seem to be waning and I still have a nice antidepressant and anxiolytic effect. I'm sleeping like a baby now too. No side effects. Completely calm and cool around people and able to express thoughts and emotion. Just normal. It's a great drug for me.
