Elavil (amitriptylene) is indeed a prescription drug - doesn't take a lot if one is interested in suicide. This is not a suggestion! It is the most sedating tricyclic but I find it's side-effects are less bothersome than the SSRI's. They also tend to abate with time. My mother and aunt have taken it for about 15 years without a break; it's the only thing that keeps them from waking early everyday. Must run in my family.
