now I should have waited, but the "sponge head", excellent description by the way, was just too much to bear anymore. Even though I would sleep, 10 hours a day on the weekends, I just felt like a slug. I was sure somebody beat me with a stupid stick. I do feel better even though I did not sleep very well last night. I was able to think better too, and just feel more in touch with things. I think you know what I mean since you have been there. Damn, the remeron has such potential, and I wish the people that try it have the right chemistry to succeed. If I can't nod off tonight I might take a little to bring the zzz's.

I managed to snag an appointment with my doc tomorrow. My wife graduates from the university next week and I am planning the bash for her so I want to at least be in some kind of shape to celebrate. The whole hit and miss thing with meds just seems so painful to go through. I guess I was lucky that my initial meds worked decent over the years. This is the first time in a long time I think I can help myself once the right med combo is found. I always wondered why I felt lousy after a few months of working out, and this time I just started to feel lousy after a few weeks so my body has changed somewhat. I just seem more sensitive since I had pneumonia last summer. I am going to take the sam-e with me tomorrow and ask him how we can work it into my meds. He is a relatively new doc for me and he was the one that had me try remeron. As for whether I go for an SRRI right away or not, the jury is still out. But, I do need a tiny dose of something to help me sleep and want to stay away from ambien or sonata if possible. I just want to make the move to one(of the ones we discussed) that will lend itself to aiding me in excercise. Everybody on this board has been great, especially you, and I appreciate it very much. Here is to all of us finding the right med and the right people to aid us in the process.
Cheers
Johnj
