I'm only actually 13 days at a therapeutic (> 75mg) amitriptyline dosage, so I'll give it some time yet. But the pattern so far is up the dose and feel a lot better for a few days, then retreat backwards.
If I don't get a response in a few weeks with ami then I'm looking at augmentation options and was hoping for some advice. Lithium - currently taking 600mg but should I go higher? T3 thyroid Buspirone or pindolol Low dose wellbutrin Low dose prozac Trazodone? Lamotrigine - I might be bipolar 2 so there is potential here, but I had no response to riluzole this time around. |

It seems like Lamatrogine really helps a lot of people, particularly those with Bipolar 2 (and doesn't cause weight gain). I tried taking it and it did help my mood but I had the rare side effect of excessive hair loss, so I stopped. Wellbutrin can really help with energy and doesn't cause weight gain, either. Good luck!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
