During my last psychiatric ward stay I was prescribed Elavil (Amitriptyline). I forgot exactly why. If I had to guess, it was to help me sleep, which only worked the first time I took it, but then again they had given me Bendaryl too, because my neck/head was stuck in an awkward position, and I couldn't move it and was in pain. After leaving the psychiatric ward, I stopped taking it because it caused a lot of weight gain.
My half-sister got prescribed Elavil for pain, and if I'm correct, she said it helped her.
Hope it works well for you.
