> i was on serzone for awhile and slept much better then on remeron with no risidual hangover in the morning. I had wonderful dreams on it and no anxiety. unfortunately i had itchiness on my face which I didn't like at all. i had to stop. i am a person who has tried everything.

> only 2 things have been sucessful for me more than remeron

> things on medications use both and exercise to maintain balance, i think people focus too much on just meds.

> goodluck.I have been on Remeron just over a week. 15mg. I am having a really hard time getting up in the morning for work. The sedation hangs on most all day. It has not yet conquered all my anxiety and oddly enough when I take a samll amount of Xanax I actually become more alert rather than the opposite which is what I expected. How long would one expect to be on Remeron to get full relief from anxiety? How about a higher dose?
