Several years ago when I started taking alot of meds I took trazadone. It did a good job of helping me get to sleep, but I generally woke up in the middle of the night. I think it also contributed to my pretty much feeling out of it much of the time. Klonopin worked much better, at least until recently. I'll ask my psychiatrist about remeron, altho it seems like alot of people on this site complain about dramatic weight gains. Do you think that's a risk at the lower dosages?
