not elavil, but I did OK on Tofranil-PM and then old school Tofranil (the "PM" version is some updated version or something...I didn't notice a difference...).

I think Elavil is more sedating. There's a drug, Triavil, that mixes perphenazine (Trilafon) with Elavil. Perphenazine is one of the better tolerated older tranquilizers. There's also Limbitrol, which is librium and elavil, together at last.

Are you going to continue the seroquel? I mentioned the Triavil in part because I'd personally be a bit scared about taking a sedating TCA with seroquel. Not trying to scare you, but...wow. That's some dense sedation, anti-cholingeric effects, etc.

I hope the Elavil helps you. :-)
