Hey Musky,
I don't know what to say as so many times I read your posts and they read like my experiences! YES, I have the same thing after waking up, this anxiety feeling creeps in rather soon. It isn't like a panic attack just this weird, nagging sort of feeling. I do also have a lot of tension stuff in the stomach which moves up and down my chest, along with a burning sensation some times.
I slept ok last night and when I woke up on the couch I was in a deeper sleep than I have been but still woke up again at 4 am and then slept on and off for a few more hours. It gets to a point where the nagging anxiety creeps back and then sleep is not going to happen anymore.
I too have not had the startle since stopping remeron. I always suspected the remeron had something to do with it. I bought some chamomille tea and I hope that helps some. I am going to try and find skullcap tea too. I know what you mean about waking up and feeling rested and happy to get going. That feeling I long for too.
Have you googled "remeron, dr. Kramer"? You will find some old posts by about remeron withdrawal. It is a good read.
You mentioned something about working with research people or something? Have they said anything about remeron and adrenals? If I remember correctly I think remeron affects them and this takes a lot of time to settle down. I wish I knew what vitamins, foods, teas, etc., that would be good to take.
I am trying to plug away. It is hard, but not much of a choice right now.
cheers
johnnyj
