How does doxepin help with intrusive thoughts?

How does doxepin help you? For me, it kind of quiets my intrusive thoughts. It doesn’t make them go away, it just quiets them.

It is an antidepressant but it is a sedating one. If you need help sleeping, it will definitely help you there. You may have to get a little more sleep because if not you’ll feel a little hung over. I have taken it for over 30 years now for PPMD. I could probably quit taking it as I have been through menopause and should? no longer have the PPMD but I think my body is dependent upon it. If I don’t take it, I don’t sleep at all.
