Marsha,

Have you tried Paxil? Paxil was the first AD I was prescribed, at a time when I was experiencing my first ever depression. It was an agitated depression, which meant LOTS of anxiety. Within 3 weeks of starting Paxil my anxiety had subsided significantly, and the depression had started to lift. It was a great med for me for about 7 years, and I regret having stopped taking the low maintenance dose I was on because, when I experienced a second depressive episode, the Paxil didn't work again. Some people say it is very sedating, but I never had a problem with sedation, and I took it early in the morning. You could also look at taking Paxil and nortriptyline together. It might be a good combo. The nort seems to be quite effective for anxiety and panic attacks, not mention being sedating so it could help in the sleep area.

Hope you find a combo that works for you with as few side effects as possible. Good luck, and take care.

Tamara
