Elavil Wean Off in Questions
5 HTP vs. Elavil (Amitriptyline)? Is it possible for me to substitute 5 HTP for the 10mg of Elavil I am currently taken? I have recently weaned myself off Lexapro and am looking to wean off Elavil as well. Will 5 HTP work in place of Elavil and/or Lexapro? Can I begin taking 5 HTP (50mg or so) with such a low dosage of Elavil or should I wean off Elavil first?

Abi replied: "You could try it but I was on the exact same medication and tried 5HTP instead. It didn't end up working for me, but my depression was still worse than I thought it was. Also, the 5HTP made me very sick to my stomach. Hopefully it works for you though, it does for some, so it is worth a shot. Good luck :)"

Anna P replied: "It is NOT the same thing. You need to wean off very slowly from the Elavil. You can try adding 5 HTP,but it does NOT act the same in the body!!"

You'll puke, have seizures, total loss of control of bowels and urine. BUT, in 7 - 14 days, if you are still alive, you won't ever need it again ! If you must stop, and it appears you do, speak straight to a doctor and request Valium or ativan to help your mental state from a panic-driven fear. Now you are AFRAID. You are right to be. But, you are living in hell now and your kids are suffering for your selfish ways. Grow up and take responsibility. I stopped cold turkey, and I have 3 children too. I saw my weakness for what it was. There are no magic bullets or vitamins that will help. Stop looking for substances to fix a mental addiction. If you give a damn about your family, and children you brought into this world, you must look in the mirror. It just isn't that hard compared to the damage you spread to others. Watch the first 10 minutes of the movie "Trainspotting". You'll get a run down on what you need to quit. You will need 2 weeks though and you won't like it."
