Did you try increasing your dose of Remeron? I take 60mgs. per day and have finally stabilized at that dose, get good sleep, good control of anxiety. Just one step down from that (45 mgs.) starts to bring back the insomnia and anxiety. I gained 20 pounds with Remeron but increasing the dose did NOT make me gain any more. It might be worth a try just upping the Remeron instead of switching to a different drug.

> I am currently on 30mgs of remeron. It's not the sleep that's the problem right now. I'm sleeping pretty good with an addition of .5mgs of klonopin.

I don't mind the 30lbs I've gained on remeron, but I know from experience that starting another TCA will make me gain more weight on top of the 30lbs. That will cause more health issues. At least if I give the cymbalta a try, I'll hopefully lose some of this weight, and if it doesn't work I'll move on to another TCA.
