Thats no good Aussie, I tried to stay away from any sleeping drugs as in the past they had made feel awfull in the morning, excactly how you describe " a hangover without the grog " , and they seem to be less affective in the long run.
Have you given any thought asking your doctor about using the newer types of antideppressants ? that may give the same benefits as Endep, without some of those terrible side affects you mentioned with Amitriptyline.

I know someone that is on Prozac now and sleeps really well these days, but before she was put on Prozac had a lot of trouble with sleeping.
I hope things improve for you.
