I mixed Amisulpride and Prozac for a few months and it worked ok. I later found that Zyprexa works a lot better for me than Amisulpride. But Amisulpride is good. For my own dysthymia and social shyness, my magic combination that works perfectly is 20mgProzac, 5mg Zyprexa, and 300mg Adrafinil.About once a month or so I sometimes slip back into a depressed state unexpectedly for a day or so. I have found that merely taking 25mg Amisulpride when that happens is enough to end the temporary downfall within hours, and it kind of feels like it resets everything back to normal.
