I just answered the post above with the same information as below:
What has helped me tremendously is Flexeril (I assume Elavil/Amitriptyline would do similar as it's almost identical in structure). Problem is I cannot take it every night or I develop tolerance. I've settled for twice a week (Mon and Fri nights). I take 5 mg and sleep in on Sat. mornings.
Flexeril is one of the few drugs that is supposed to enhance Slow-Wave/Deep/Stage 3-4 Sleep. The AD Trazodone is also supposed to help, I've tried it and can report favorably although it doesn't help as much as the Flexeril for me.
