ace - I am not a big believer in pindolol augmentation. I know people who swear that it works, but I haven't much luck with it in a clinical setting. I just say ... "wait it out, relief is on the way" and I know that two weeks seems like a long time (similar to being away from my wife for that time), it does pass fairly quickly (at least at my age times passes quickly).

I have never seen amisulpride used (it is not available in Canada), but I do think that it is a cool drug. I just wish I could see it's results without having to read between the lines of the industry drug trials.

Zyprexa™ (olanzapine) is a good powerful drug; it is just that it's side effects suck (can I say that?). If you are able to starve yourself for a year, you can avoid the large weight gain associated with the drug, as the carbohydrate cravings seem to lessen after a year. Clozaril™ (clozapine) is even a better drug than Zyprexa, but it is more toxic still. Why is it that the best neuropsychiatric drugs have to be the most dangerous (in terms of potential side effects and heath effects)? There has got to be something to this obsevation; I am just not smart enough to see it.

Good luck ace, and hang in there. You're sounding much better. - Cam
