In reply to Remeron and Dysphoric Hypomania????, posted by Geezer on February 26, 2002, at 15:56:21
Geezer,Remeron at the higher doses made me feel
agitated during the day (still helped me sleep).
I'm bpII. I took it as an adjunct to Lamictal
and Klonopin.Can you remind us as to which ADs you have tried
since going on Depakote?I found that Wellbutrin was a good AD for bipolar.
Calmed me down.-John

Have had some scary times over the last 9 days at 30mg. I suppose the solution is a no-brainer, reduce the Remeron. Just took a little Klonopin to see if that settles things down. Had to fire the new pdoc today - she insists cognative therapy is the answer, good lord, I have a daughter older than she is.
