Question- Tricyclics... emotional blunting?

Posted by Caleb462 on April 25, 2003, at 0:51:05

I've never taken a tricyclic, it has always been SSRIs. So, my question is.... do tricylics cause the emotional blunting that SSRIs do? The apathy and lack of concern, etc.? I would assume that they do, since that "side-effect" is not really a side effect, but the theraputic effect itself.
The reason I ask is because I've always wanted to try Anafranil, but never have. I'm thinking about asking my doc to put me on Anafranil and compliment it with Provigil to minimize sedation and increase concentration/motivation.
I'm OCD/SP/GAD/ADD and am currently suffering moderate to severe depression.
Thanks.
