Abilify and low-dose amisulpride are used to treat depression through a pro-dopaminergic mechanism. Abilify is a D2 and D3 receptor partial agonist. Amisulpride is a preferential DA autoreceptor antagonist. Both drugs are effective in treating the negative symptoms of schizophrenia - the deficit syndrome. This syndrome includes all the symptoms you describe. Both drugs are now also used to treat depression.
