Gosh. I think this is a job for Ed_UK.
I would think that propranolol is a potential culprit for the mood/behavioral symptoms you experience in the morning. Not sure. You could remove it temporarily to see what happens. Alternatively, you could try increasing the doxylamine to determine if it is responsible for these symptoms. I know that everyone is different, but prazosin 20 mg/day does not affect my desire to socialize. In addition, prazosin does not help with sleep. However, it has a positive impact on depression. I divide prazosin in dosing 3 times a day.
What happens when you raise the Ativan to 2 mg h.s.?

Trazodone:
1. Weak SRI
2. Anticholinergic
Doxylamine:
1. Antihistamine
2. Anticholinergic
Paxil:
1. Strong SRI
2. AnticholinergicPaxil can help with IBS (anticholinergic) as well as depression and social anxiety (SRI).
