[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 354674, member: 2423"] I just looked Doxepin up in my psychopharm book. It's a tricyclic antidepressant -- same class of medications as Amitriptyline (Elavil) and Nortriptyline (Pamelor), which are excellent for anxiety as well as insomnia. I'm not sure why the psychiatrist would say Doxepin wouldn't help with anxiety. I myself have taken both Amitriptyline and Nortriptyline (low doses, in fact), and they help me a lot with anxiety. My younger daughter M takes 45 mg Remeron for anxiety and sleep. She's very small for her age (just reached 69 pounds). While she sleeps heavily at night and has a little difficulty awakening in the morning, she is not sleepy during the day. My son J trialed Buspar at age 12. It made him so dizzy that he couldn't get used to it. He ditched it after a week. I know others here have used it with positive results. [/QUOTE]
