Christ Empowered, Thank you!
I am hesistant about using another med that has strong anti-cholinergic properties (Imipramine), just 'cause those were causing the main long-term SE of sweating. Also, any aerobic activities cause my heart-rate to shoot up high. This hasn't happened with other AD's. Exercise helps my mood/ concentration A LOT and it sucks not really being able to do anything (although I do work on my feet all day, so that must count for something). So if there's a TCA without a strong affinity for the mACH receptor, I'm game.
Buspirone is something I've never used. I'll definitely ask about that. I've never heard of any terrible SE from it.
As far as the 'desoxyn' goes, I tend to not really get too pushy w/ the psychostims. Having gone through a research university's program, I'm pretty used to conservative prescribing measures and tend to let the doctors make the calls with 'stims.
Anxiety: Was terrible in my teens and early 20's (i.e. paralyzing panic attacks almost daily). These days, it's not really too much of an issue. It took 2 intense years with an old school 'psycho-dynamic' psychologist to really get through the anxiety.
