> Can anyone list the most sedating ones?Sorry, late on this, Ive tried all TCA and this is what I've found. unless you want the strong SRI effects of clomipramine, then amitriptyline def 2nd. Has an equal SRI/NRI ratio. trimipramine works totally diffent but is rather sadative effect. Corrects sleep for many, tho can cause nightmares in some (like me).To be taken all at night.
