> Anybody with experience from the combination of Effexor and Remeron? According to professor Stephen M. Stahl University of California and author of several psychopharmacology books, this combo is called "California Rocket Fuel" and "has a great degree of theoretical synergy". Would be very interesting to know more about this.

I have some leftovers from earlier separate trials of effexor and Remeron. Several weeks ago I was just sitting around in immense psychological pain pondering what I should do with my self next when I happened across several of the archived posts on Remeron plus effexor. I hated Remeron because it made me drowsier than any medication that I have ever been on, not just anti-depressants, but anything that I can ever remember being on. Nothing has made me sleep like Remeron. I was on it for a little over a month. The side effects showed no promise of ever letting up in the least so I gave up and just left the half-full prescription in the medicine cabinet. But at this time I was desperate so I decided to experiment with Rem+Eff. I took 30 mg of Remeron 2 hrs before bedtime and 150 mg of effexor when I awoke in the morning. I awoke intermittently for the next three days just enough to move from one piece of furniture to the next. For the next three days I fell asleep at least once on every piece of furniture in the house - kitchen appliances count. If I ever decide to commit suicide but don't have the courage to go all the way I think I will compromise with Remeron and effexor. I can sleep off the next 30 years of my life - suicide by somnolence.Vince
