Im not sure if this is remeron with drawl, but its day 4 without remeron. My anxiety is full blown now. My sleep is terrible, my dread feeling are back, although my appetite is down and libido is full force. I believe remeron controlls seratonin /norepin release and feedback, when you go off it, they both get "out of control. Remeron also seems to have a calming effect like xanax, although it does not bind gaba receptor.
Iv been off remeron and xanax for 4 days. i feel so terrible. sleep, depression, anxiety are returned if full force. Im going back on tonight so tommorrow is full of serenity.

In reply to REMERON WITHDRAWL , posted by geno on December 13, 2001, at 16:59:24
I have been taking remeron for a few months now. I dont take it everydayb ut i do take it if i cant sleep. I have panic/anxiety disorder and REMERON has been a wonder drug. There is nothing in this world like remeron. When im having a panic attack and feel like im dying.... the only thing that helps is SLEEP. And I have HORRIBLE INSOMNIA. 30 minutes after taking the remeron... .my panic attack goes away and i nicely drift asleep. The only HORRIBLE thing about it is... When i wake up i feel so drowsy and miserable. I have to go to work and i just feel like shit. It actually makes my anxiety worse in the morning, just like xanax. Xanax helps lower my heart rate but doesnt help me sleep. I eat and eat and eat.... i cant stop eating on remeron. I havent taken remeron in like 4 days and i have been so aggravated! I have been so bitchy and CrAzY! My mom gets remeron from her doc to help her sleep. i dont have insurance so i take what i could get!

Ya, i call remeron the brain feel good drug. Your brain "feels good, so its says bring on the food". I may try to up my dosage to 45mg to see if it helps eating less. i feel that i cannot go on living without remeron. Its like lithium to a bipolar person to me. i tried every other drug, nothing like xanax and remeron. although i may try this:
Zoloft 100mg am
klonopin 1-2mg
abien 10mgi hear this combo also helps alot. rightnow i feel very very panicy, because i havent taken my remeron and xanax. every minute is bad. when im on these meds, life is a breeze. Nothing bothers me. This may sound a bit bad, but sept 11, i was on 2mg of xanax and remeron, i wasnt that nervous after seeing the news. Now if i wasnt on these drugs that day, id probably feel like i was actully at ground zero that day.
keep me informed.

> geno>Hi, I too take remeron and klonopin for depr. and anxiety. I feel it helps somewhat but not completely. I seem to feel better as the day goes on, but I feel like crap in the morning... Tired and anxious..I take 30 mg. Remeron and .25 Klonopin twice a day. I have been on this regimen for about three weeks and wonder if it will get better.
