Remeron works for me

I've had the best response to Remeron of all the AD's I've tried. They all poop out after a while, and Remeron was no exception. It worked beautifully for 2 months then gave out. I'm now augmenting it with lithium and it's working great again (hope it lasts). I have never felt agitated on it, and overly sedated only the first week, although it still takes a while to get going in the morning. I take 45 mg at night. It's the only SSRI where I don't feel clenching in the gut or jaw. I feel calm and am recognizing glimmerings of true joy as I get my life back on track. The only drawback is the weight gain.

Interestingly, I had a TERRIBLE reaction to Serzone. Gave it 2 months and I couldn't shake off the weird wooziness and the feeling of getting more depressed on it. Guess that goes to show how all of us are wired differently.
