For Schizophrenia "The dosage amount that I was prescribed was too much. My body could not handle that amount of milligrams and my chemical toxicity levels went through the roof and my body and brain over drove its tolerance levels and rejected the drug. I am now bed ridden from the effects of Toxic Encephalopathy in my brain and Paralytic Ileus of my stomach and colon caused by toxic effects of the drug. The drug additionally caused me high cholesterol levels and high blood pressure. I am now additionally on cholesterol tablets and blood pressure tablets. If you take this drug do not take more than 200mg a day."
"I take Amisulperide 100mg for Borderline or Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder. It has made a huge difference to my life. My emotions aren't all over the place, I'm not raging and suicidal anymore. I feel like I can live a normal life. Thank goodness for this drug and the effect it has had on this terrible condition. Only side effect is raised prolactin and a suppressed libido. I am on HRT for this. Best of Luck"
For Schizophrenia "I have been taking this medication for more than 10 years now. Overall, it is a good drug compared to other antipsychotics I have tried, with relatively minimal side effects. The unique aspect of this drug for me is that it has helped with the social aspects of schizophrenia and has allowed me to enjoy things more, while also reducing a lot of my inner anxiety. I am now able to go out more, have many friends, and have even obtained a B.A degree in psychology and computer science. I have been working a part-time job for several years. I take only 100mg of the drug because higher doses cause me extreme discomfort and make it difficult for me to remain still for more than 2 minutes. Over the years, the drug has caused my prolactin levels to increase, resulting in weight gain and decreased energy levels. However, this is manageable for me. In addition to this medication, I take Risperdone, Mirtazapine, Citalopram, Vortioxetine, Ritalin, Valproic acid, and I attend weekly psychotherapy sessions with my psychiatrist."
For Persistent Depressive Disorder "This drug has completely took my paranoia and intrusive thoughts.It makes me more sociable and calm also it can help you to get rid of OCD."

For Schizophrenia "I took this drug amisulpride for 3 years which was prescribed for Psychosis/schizophrenia and I had never felt better! It was the most effective drug that I ever took, I was so high, so confident, social and positive. I was symptom free! But It increased my prolactin levels to 600."
