Hi Robin,
I have been on Remeron 30 mg for the past 9 mos. I also take Clonazepam .50 BID. I had a rocky start to the Remeron, like you I immediately felt wonderful within the first week, at the end of week two though, I was right back where I started. At that time I was on 15mg, my psydoc increased it to 30 mg and once again I was well on my way to recovery, only to have another set back at 8 weeks. I decided I wasn't going to do another increase and within a few days, possibly a week, things turned around again and I have been great ever since. Side affects are minimal and most were transient. I sleep well, wake refreshed and clear headed, and haven't gained any weight, infact, I've lost over the past 9 mos while being on Rem. Not a normal side affect but I'm not complaining lol. Remeron has given me my life back, I'm once again functioning and even working again, which I hadn't done for 3 yrs. Good luck...

Robin,
I have been taking 30 mg of Remeron for the past three months for sleep. It works wonders for my sleep but that is the extent of it. It relieved the anxiety in the initial weeks but then it seemed to poop out in that respect. I have tried going up to 60 mg at night but it doesn't have the sedating qualities at higher doses so I backed down to 30mg. I have gained 10 pds. since taking it but I don't know if it is a result of the Remeron or the effexor I am taking in the am. Hope you continue to feel good!Nicole
