Amitryptalin

I managed successfully to come off Amitryptalin one month ago and all was well and I was so proud of myself. The last four days it started to come back and now I’m right back to horrible depression. Has anyone had this experience? I have not gone back to the drug cause it had many side effects,but I don’t know what else to do. Can anyone help? I never had problems with migraines, just depression

I've used amitryptiline in the past no problems when coming off of it. Didn't help with migraines anyway. Only one which does is triptans and even then only poorly. Do you mean the depression came back or the migraines as well? Not had depression sounds horrible but what the world is experiencing right now can't be helping. Do you have people you can reach out to for help and support?
