It's the weekend, the dose has been raised
from 15mg to 30mg;Results: Very promising, much better than
starting at 30mg where Miss X felt like she
was hit by a ton of bricks; no anxiety, sleep
very good, some sneezing, histaminic feeling
in the morning, increase in appetite.It has only been 2 weeks, so more developments
will be reported as they arise. Nevertheless,
the ability to sleep well after some 12-15 yrs.
is something to be grateful for. Had it been
in my power, i would have given a long-life benzo
with the imipramine from the beginning, but hey,
i'm not a doctor, just look like one on the net.My comments: the remarkable success of the older
drugs, such as lithium, imipramine and Remeron,
can only indicate the paucity of real scientific
research and advancement in the psychopharmacology
medicines.Indeed, the reason i chose Remeron as a suggestion
for this is among other things (i.e. anxiety and
depression target) that it was remarked that it is
not clearly known how the drug works, and it is very
old. Same with lithium - i guess i am a bit
biased, but there is something to this i think.Squiggles
