Thanks. I had been hearing that Remeron can be really sedating, and that it's antidepressant effect may not be that great. Also, apparently it can cause a lot of weight gain (yuk). Well, I will continue my search and discuss options with the pdoc next Monday.
Take care.

> I could only take 15mg as practically lapsed into a coma when I tried to up the dosage at all. Helps with sleep but has made me have anger issues (husband noted this two weeks after starting remeron) which WB has exacerbated. Did not do enough for depression at 15mg and felt tired a lot. WB added which was great when it kicked in, but then increased anxiety so much that I have dropped to only 100mg WB and am still having a ton of anxiety. I'm not that thrilled with it as a medication.
