Hey there,
Its hard to say based on medications alone. I take effexor (related to pristiq) and it can help my sleep and attention at the right dose.
Some doctors like to ramp meds up quick, but this can make some patients ditch the med before it has a chance to work.
25mg of amitriptyline isn't a high dose, but because it is a strong antihistamine, some patients might ditch it too quickly. The antihistamine effect should become less prominent over time.
