I've been on Remeron for the past ten years, at 15mg, and just weaned myself off it
because i wasn't sure it was doing much good--and i thought about trying another med.
I'm considering going back on it, though, because 1) i love the lack of side effects--for
me, 2) i like the small amount of sedation i get with it, and 3) i just had the worst panic of
my life recently!
BUT, i'm not sure it's done enough for my anxiety, because i've had other episodes of
anxiety/panic while on it. Considering trying something like Lexapro, though i haven't
heard great things regarding sleep attached to it, and i'm also scared to try a new SSRI. I'm
not good with start-up side effects!
Glad you're finding success with the Remeron! It's always been a very 'safe' drug for me--
never felt weird on it, and probably reaped some benefits. Hope you continue to do so!
You might check out 'Cairo's posts on Remeron--she has been helped greatly by it.
