In reply to Switching to Remeron for Anxiety, posted by Machin on January 28, 2004, at 17:19:45
You will experience most of the anxiolytic and sleep-improving effects at week 1--and full appetite stimulation :). The full antidepressant effect takes at least 2 weeks. For me, Remeron won hands down against the SSRIs for anxiety relief. Unfortunately, the sedation of my autonomic nervous system that its antihistamine effect produced felt like I was taking Seroquel all over again. I'm now on desipramine and Trileptal, and I must say, I'm not any more anxious than I was on Remeron. Go figure.
Good luck!
