John,
Believe it or not, I understand as completely as possible the difference between the *older generation* of tricyclic a-d's (I even know why they are called trycyclics!) and the *newer generation* of SSRI's.
The first a-d I took was Elavil/Amitryptline, which is a tricyclic! Luckily, the side effects I had were minor and wore off, which I was told they often do. I did miss the nice calming, sedative effect it had for me which got me to sleep like a baby (I took it at night for awhile).
Have you ever taken a tricyclic, and if so which one(s)?
Also, I have a question from a thread further above that you apparently didn't see my note to go back up there - what are GENOMIC changes? I couldn't find the word genomic in the dictionary.
Thanks!
-Janelle
