I loved your account of Remeron. I lasted for only one dose. I passed out for twelve hours, and when I woke up thought I had been poisoned. I couldn't think, feel, and everything was numb. That was the first day.
I spent the second day on the floor of my apartment in a horribly uncomfortable position, but I couldn't get the energy to move. I actually felt like accounts I had read of heroin withdrawal, and I had a dull desire to cut myself open so I could watch myself bleed to death.
My psychiatrist was horrified, and told me not to take any more. LOL!
I hope I haven't scared anyone too much, but I could really relate to some of the bad reactions I've read here.
I guess I feel that if Remeron makes you sleepy and feel a little weird, try sticking it out.
If it makes you want to kill yourself to escape the side effects, quit and call your doctor! There are other drugs out there. I'm pretty happy with Parnate so far.
