Felt quite low last weekend. Took 12.5mg of amitryptaline. I'd been meaning toΒ Β assess its effect on sleep/dreaming as part of a long-running personal experiment. Experienced hypogogia as I drifted off that night but the content of dreaming itself was unclear. The sedate feeling lingered into the next day.
Forty-eight hours after initial administration I noticed an offset/aftereffect. I dreamed that night and remembered enough nonsense to be bored/perturbed. I experienced a vivid hypnopompic state, whereby parts of my dream clung to waking thought for long enough to remember some narrative (some sort of teen-drama mash-up but the lovable main characters were missing, and I was earnestly trying to convince myself it [the dream?] was worth continuing.
A mild but noticeable aftereffect feeling persisted into the next day. At 12.5mg its character is not so clear, no signs of anything interesting. I found tianeptine more curious. Fruitless experiment, will not repeat.
