In reply to Does anyone take Remeron for GAD?, posted by saturn on March 19, 2007, at 22:56:51
I kind of have a love/hate relationship with remeron. Actually, last night I went back to it out of desparation and can't belive how well I am doing today. I started at 3.75 and don't see me going up as in the past 7.5 really helped but made me feel kind of down. That could have been undiagnosed allergies at the time though.
I had akathisia due to ssri's and seroquel and after stopping seroquel last night after 4 tortuours days and starting remeron that internal hell feeling is almost gone. Remeron has been show to stop akathisia at 15 mg. But is has shown to cause it at 30 too. Go figure.
That being said I hope the sedation wears off.
I am using remeron for GAD/sleep issues. I also have some OCD "Pure O" and it has helped in the past. However at higher doses (15mg) I had a lot of daydreaming issues. Kind of strange. I think it is the sedation aspect.
Good luck
regards
