Maybe I'll just suggest another tricyclic or see if the one I'm on is better at another level.

Hi again,
I've taken fairly high doses of nortriptyline; it is a major metabolite of amytriptyline. If the amytriptyline works for you but the side effects are too much, nortriptyline may be worth a try. I noticed almost no side effects from nortriptyline. It did not help my depression, but I am treatment resistant atypical. The MAOI Nardil is the only med that has helped my depression.
Be Well,
Jedi
