> Hello Tired of Panic and Life. I just thought I'd say hi. I haven't been on here in an obviously incredibly long time. I'm still very much off the Remeron and it's been just over 10 months now. I've gone through some pretty rough times to get here and that's pretty much why I haven't been on here. At first it was mostly Depression and severe anxiety from the withdrawal. To tell you all, I've found from several really good and reputable sources that it really does take between 18 months to 2 years to get totally rid of the withdrawal symptoms. And I've learned that it really takes some great sacrifice and patience in order to alleviate these symptoms. I'm very glad to see that you two are still on this site and I'm very, very curious to hear how you've been doing. In addition if you or anyone else have any questions about what I've been through or what I've done to alleviate the bad thoughts, etc while I'm still "drying" out (lol), I'd be more than happy to embellish. I'm still having problems, but, finally my mind is 100 percent as sharp as it was before I went on AD's over 11 years ago. I'm hoping to hear from you soon.

Hi, Jim!
I'm coming out from mirtazapine after almost 3 years on 45mg daily. It took 6 months to reach 50% of the original dosage and other 6 months to the point I'm now: one small fragment each 8 hours (the 3 taken in a day add up to about 2mg).
I'm having a very hard time, sometimes I feel I'll not bear all this, mainly the anxiety. The docs say it's just anxiety (yes, I have been anxious all my life), nothing to do with withdraw, and that I have to take A/Ds or anxiolitcs. (The last one offered me a "harmless" drug, trazadone... I tried 20+ of these drugs for 8 years before discovering they were the main problem - never more!)
So, could you please tell me more about the "several really good and reputable sources" you found? It would help me to convince the docs.
Regards,
Bob
