Hi Betty--
Sorry you're having difficulty finding the right dosage. It is frustrating, isn't it.
I'm not sure how long you have been trying the Remeron. I know for me I was knocked out the first two days at 15mg but then I had several days where I actually slept worse: awake/asleep/awake/asleep all night long. That eventually passed.
I have noticed now that I am waking up at 6:00am and have some difficulty falling back asleep. I know I should get up at that time for a couple of days and maybe I'll get tired enough not to do it anymore. (I work from 1pm-8pm approx. so I usually don't get up that early). Sleeping until 7:30 or 8 would be perfect for me.
I'd talk to your doctor and see what they suggest.
Good Luck and let us know how you are doing!
