I would go and see your GP on Monday and discuss all the negative symptoms that you are having, it could be a virus and not your tablets at all; and it is probably not a good idea to just stop taking medication without consulting your doctor first.

im just feeling like im begining to lose it im having cbt and that seems to be helping but i just feel so dizzy and lightheaded its a weird feeling like my head is going to explode but with no pain i feel i should have given the amitriptyline more time instead of stopping after a couple of days as i currently feel like im getting worse and worse ive still got the ami i may give it ago even if i start on 5mg rather than 10mg im so scared of the side effects ive read on here :(
