Hi, I’m on a tricyclic antidepressant but not the one that you’re taking, it goes by the name Amitriptyline, I’ve been using it on and off for 10 years. I also tried using so many different medications that are more current ssri’s but they made me sick so it wasn’t an option. In my opinion the medication is not the best choice but it does help me somewhat with anxiety along with Ativan to help me cope. It’s hard to find what works best but you keep trying until you get it right, I hope it works for you and in case it doesn’t there’s certainly something else that you can try, good wishes.
