Hi Panic_Attack,
I would have to go with Frankie on this one, based on my own experience only. I just started Remeron 2 nights ago at 15mg/night. It is a heavy drug with sedation but it is the first good nights sleep I have had in 9 months. I resisted it for the same reasons you mentioned (I don't drink) but couldn't hold out any longer - I've been "down the road" on the rest of them. I will be pushing Remeron higher but wouldn't recommend it to you for your first time out. I had a real good response to Prozac for the year 1998 - then it pooped out. I didn't know until 2001 that I was Bipolar II; that's important and you should get a DX if you don't have one (don't remember if you mentioned it).Wish you the best - keep us posted.
