Same for me on nortriptyline with the irratibility and anger.
> I was given nortrip after a hospitalization last year by an inpatient psychiatrist who didn't know what he was doing (apparently, he didn't listen to me when I said drugs which preferentially enhance NE function *always* make me anxious and irritable - Effexor, Cymbalta, Wellbutrin) - and I had my typical increased NE reaction. EXTREMELY irritable and quick to anger. Not like me at all.

I hope in the decades to come we'll have scientific diagnostic tools which will cut short the time to finding the "right" pharmacological treatment for a given patient.
