Yes, I've been on doxepin off and on for MANY years. Most of the time I've only taken a small amount of it. It has been a great drug for me in terms of fighting anxiety and lifting mood and keeping me asleep once I've fallen asleep. The grogginess should go away. Additional pro for me was that it helped with allergies.
The cons were that it increased my appetite, decreased my memory somewhat and possibly impeded concentration a bit. I went off of it a few months ago because I started sleeping through my alarms in the morning but staying asleep is a lot more difficult now and my mood is definitely lower.
