Hi discogirl, I'm on amitriptyline but I was on it before and came off it, it's not recommended to just stop cold turkey as withdrawal symptoms can happen, it's advisable to cut down and wean off slowly but this is dependent on dose and length of time taken, I was only on 10mg when I came off it, I cut pills in half took 5mg for a couple of weeks then went to every other day, but I suffered the most horrendous insomnia when I stopped all together, it did pass eventually, not saying that will happen for you just my own personal experience, I was on it for 3 years at that point, if you've only taken it a couple of months withdrawal might not be so harsh, but I'd cut down and do a slow withdrawal of taking it x
