For me, Remeron 30mg did nothing except help me sleep, but it turned into a completely different drug when I raised the dose to 45mg. It has left me free of depression, anxiety and major OCD for months. My anorexia is better too and I guess all this means it is even treating my aspergers! I do augment it with an old TCA to help me sleep - anafranil (as the higher dose acted like a stimulant for me, so made it hard to sleep much at all). I spent the past 10 years of my life trying almost every psych med going and none have given me anything like the remission Remeron at 45mg has.
It would be great if the raised dose could help you too. I think it might be worth trying.Hope things start feeling better for you soon.
Take care
Caroline
