      I'm on zopiclone to sleep at nite, and the same, it really relaxes me, anxiety and panic, chest tightness all goes away. The chest was so bad last nite I took a zoplicone at 6.30 and it chilled me all eve till I went bed at 11. Also on sertraline, still waiting for that to work. Sorry not tried doxepin. I can recommend zopiclone though!
