I have been on Amitriptyline since '06 to help me with my trouble sleeping, for about a month or so, I have been feeling depressed and my cousin says I should seek help and told me that these kinds of medications could make it worse? It says on the bottle that it is a anti-depressant. I don't want to stop taking it because I still have trouble falling asleep if I don't take it. What should I do?
