hi. i wasn't trying to play MD or know it all, just...thought I'd try to be helpful, that's all. anyway...
elavil was, once, a fairly popular drug. there were (are?) 2 combo pills of it, one w/ librium and one w/ perphenazine. i don't know how people tolerated those drugs, but...there you go.
have you ever been prescribed buspirone (buspar in the US) ? its non-sedating...i vaguely seem to recall reading that the drug company initially thought they had a new neuroleptic on their hands, but that didn't pan out...
but anyway: it is sometimes used w/ antidepressants, to calm people down and boost overall response. i think it requires 2-3x daily dosing, non-addictive, i dont know if there's a known discontinuation syndrome.
can you take gaba-ergic drugs? gabapentin, lyrica...or not so much?
sorry you're going thru it. :-(
