Hi,Remeron is nothing like Trazodone. Completely different mode of action.
I had massive insomnia for a few days when I was trying to quit
a medication, I almost went insane steering at the wall. I felt like
I had this steady low-level supply of energy that just wouldn't let me
fall asleep but at the same time I felt like shit. It was horrible.
So I ?kinda? know where you are coming from.
Fortunately I generally don't have the depression that is coupled with insomnia.
Anyways,please don't feel a need to compare pain stories with one another. Everyone
deserves a dignified quality of life, no matter what the situation.take care,
John
> Is Remeron anything like Trazodone? I took that for a while with Xanax, and it stopped working after about a month. I remember that Trazodone was easy to get into too, without having to do the slow-dose thing. I was hoping Remeron resembled Serzone more, because that's what I really need.

> I read these posts and feel so sad for most of you. I feel like since all I have is a little panic-induced insomnia (panic about sleep, that is!), I don't really belong. But then I think of how awful I feel when I lie in bed for ten hours without sleeping. I spend the next day crying and feeling totally depressed and worthless and hopeless. And then I sleep two hours the next night, and the cycle continues for four days.
