Re: SSRIs Versus Tricyclic Anti-dep.
Yes, I use to take Elavil (Amitryptline) a tricyclic, years ago. It worked fine for me, No side effects, just a little dry mouth, and made me a little tired after taking, took at bedtime. But, I cannot take it now, because I also have high blood pressure, with rapid heart rate, palps. I Absolutey, Cannot take the SSRI's, at all, they all make me incredibly sick, extreme anxiety, nausea, etc...the list goes on with these. Too bad, because I did so much better on the tricyclics, but that was yrs ago, before I started having palps and blood pressure issues.
