I've been taking 25mg of Elavil (Ametriptyline right?) nightly to help with sleeping. It's been moderately helpful. I still wake up, but less often and I fall back asleep more easily. There was some talk of upping my dose but I'm not interested. It took me weeks to finally cave and try drugs to help me sleep and I'm going to get off it as fast as I can.

It hasn't helped with other symptoms, although if they had improved I would have been left wondering -- was it the magic pill or just time?
