The doc said he's dx'ing it instead of elavil which had caused a lot of brain fog when I took it about 4 years ago. My main issue with doxepin is that it causes pulsating, tremory feelings throughout my body which are quite unpleasant. Doc confirmed that this is one of its side effects.

Does anyone have any experience with this drug? I'm thinking of getting off it because of the internal shakiness.
