don't know, phillipa. i forgot one thing about amitriptyline. i stopped it after 3 weeks or so, cold turkey(didn't know)I woke up the next morning and called my mother at 7 am. I basically started telling her, as fast as i could talk, that i had figured out the secrets of happiness in the universe..7AM!
i hung up with her and my brother called..my mother had called him. i rattled on with more bs. we hung up and i started feeling clammy and my stomach was not doing well. i started to sweat.
my mind said, hey this feels like heroin withdrawal(i was guessing) i called my doc and he said *you can't do THAT*. he told me to take half a dose, call in sick and go to bed.
anyway, i know beyond a doubt that i was crazy manic that morning.
i wonder if anyone else has had a similar experience?
