Amitriptyline and TCAs

Messages

Hi all,

I read an interesting post about someone getting remission on desipramine earlier.

I have experience with anotehr TCA, amitriptyline, where I tried one microdose at around 9 PM, woke up at 3 AM, stood up, passed out.. had weird heartbeat and anxiety for a few weeks after. Has anyone had a similar experience?
