At 10mg nortriptyline may not have much of an effect.
It is sort of like some antihistamines which also have a mild anticholinergic effect. If you have blurred vision or dry mouth, that would be a sign of the anticholinergic effects.

You should do the B12 on an empty stomach. Not much is absorbed under the tongue...the rest you swallow with your saliva. If food is present, the microgram amounts are absorbed into the fiber of the food and cannot be passively absorbed into the blood stream.

The SSRIs may be safer, but you'd have to ask your doctor, etc.

I can't say about the D.... I get no side effects from it at all.
People vary. I would make sure you are taking it in a liquigel form and not dry powder. Since D is oil soluble it is better absorbed from the oil.
