How small a dose did you take at night? My pdoc prescribed 15 mg. I'm currently on 20 mg paxil, which is not working that well. Remeron is the only AD I haven't tried due to the weight gain issue. I think my pdoc is hoping it might help augment the paxil.
Currently I take 7.5 zopiclone (and have been adding an extra half lately) 25. mg. seroquel and .5 clonazapam for sleep. One thing I forgot to ask him as we had some other stuff to go over at my appt. is do I stop the zop and seroquel and start the remeron or do I take it with everything else. I don't want to be any more of a zombie the next day than I already am.
Any advice on how to do this transition would be appreciated.
Being bipolar, having fibromyalgia and refractory depression sucks, add 60 extra pounds and welcome to my life...akkkk..sorry, just feeling a bit sorry for myself tonite..
