> ....I am trying choose between zyprexa and remeron to augment.
Just my own opinion based on my own trials of these meds, but I like Zyprexa a lot better than Remeron. I was on Remeron for about a year. I never really did like it the whole time except that it knocked me out fast at bedtime. But the only reason I wanted to fall asleep fast, and early, was because I still had residual depression and I just had no desire to do anything. Sleep was escape, and Remeron helped me escape. Zyprexa, for me anyway, is real good. I like it. It does not knock me out like Remeron did, but then, I'm not in a hurry to escape anymore either. I feel good, and usually the days just aren't long enough to do everything I want to do.
But as you mentioned, augmentation might be the way to go. Zyprexa is not my only med. I also take the minimum doses of Prozac and Adrafinil.
