I'm wondering if this is possible. I will of course see my GP but won't be able to for a while so thought I'd ask. Googling just confused me (brain doesn't really work ATM)
I was on amitryptiline (a tricyclic) for about 18 months, not actually as an AD but at a low dose used as a painkiller (I have a chronic illness). I gradually came off it earlier this year. I am now on sertraline (SSRI) as my depression/anxiety has been bad.
I think the latter is helping a little but the headaches and pain and insomnia have been creeping back so I'm wondering if I should restart the amitryptiline - but concerned about the two interacting in some way.
Any experience of this please

Anyone taking a tricyclic AND an SSRI at the same time?
