Odd, yes...and from what I hear, barbiturates like Amytal can be very addictive. Plus it sounds to me like the Xanax is working.
Amobarbital also has a lot of interactions with other drugs. In particular: are you female, and if so, do you take the pill or other hormonal contraceptives? (I ask because barbiturates can decrease the effectiveness of these.)
I think if I had a doctor who recommended a barbiturate (other than perhaps phenobarbital, which is still sometimes used for epilepsy), especially to take on a daily basis, I would seriously consider getting a second opinion.
Best,
