Hi, thanks for the reply. I also take 20mg of Lexapro and 2mg of Klonopin. The Remeron use to help with my anxiety and sleep disturbances due to anxiety (it would produce a slight sedating effect allowing my body to physically relax--my anxiety produces a lot of physical symptoms such as tingling sensations, headaches, muscle tension-----and the remeron use to reduce these symptoms. If I'm not mistaken I read somewhere that Remeron worked at lower doses on the Histimine system in the brain i.e. causing sleepiness. But If you increase if you increase Remeron does it help with alleviating depression and anxiety? Or will it just increase anxiety (the stimulating effect you mentioned). Or would it be better to up the SSRI to help with the depression?-----By the way I am sorry for all of the questions--just want to get the most out of my pdoc visit Tuesday (at $150.00 a visit on my budget everything counts)==Thanks in advance :)
