Thanks guys. mellow, that is very interesting about the rem sleep! My dreams are still very vivid, and feels like I dream all night long, but they are getting better. When I weaned off zoloft a few years ago, I had some very disturbing sleep issues--I kept dreaming that my eyes were open and I was looking around my room--I could see every bit of it in detail, but I couldn't make myself move or getup. During that period I also had a nightmare that was so vivid and real, I thought I was sitting up in bed screaming, and then I actually woke up in bed screaming. My husband rushed into the room, he thought I was being attacked or something! LOL. We joke about it now, but at the time I started crying. These SSRIs are just so much more potent than our doctors realize.
