Was that TCA you referred to doxepin (from www.mentalhealth.com, it's the one closest in spelling ... then again, spelling hardly seems to mean anything in naming psychofarm products).
I don't know about anything permanent, but since I've been taking nortriptyline I've noticed a number of cognitive improvements, particularly for affective/cognitive tasks like goal setting and causal attribution. Some problems in STM, but most for stuff as you described -- lists of tasks, things to do, etc.
Cheers,
Bobbtw ... if folks want to do a little art therapy and learn some neuroanatomy at the same time, there are some realling good brain anatomy coloring books on the market. Get out yer crayons and color your seahorses any shade you want!
