> So, you are *still* on EffexorXR (and at 300 mgs - wow, I *admire* you - I could only tolerate 75 mgs, tapered to 37.5, stopped it a few days ago and am getting that darn electric head and rebound anxiety, but I'm riding them out cuz I do NOT want to go back on EffexorXR)
I have been on Effexor since 1995. The only reason I stop it is because my HMO sometimes forgets that they approved for me.
> SO ... what do you think of Remeron? When do you take it (time of day or evening). If you take it at night, does it help you sleep? Does it have a bad hang-over effect in the am? Has it caused you to gain weight?
I love Remeron. I take it at night, puts me right out, with no AM groggyness.(did knock me out at first) Great sleep. All AD's cuase me to gain weight, but Remeron seem not to do this very much.james
