Tony:
Thank you for your replies it is what I really needed. I have been thinking of doxepin or trimipramine for sleep. Have you ever tried doxepin? I wish I could over sleep! I have tried two doses of 100 mg of neurontin and it is not making me feel very well, acutally more down. Another med bites the dust!
I was on remeron for 3 years and although it helped me sleep I couldn't shake the stomach tension and chest tension it would cause. I just put up with it. It was very hard to come off of. I tried it a second time out of desperation and I did even worse the second time. I believe it really made my ocd worse and made me a big *ss too. The remeron rage was scary.
Do you have any ocd with your anxiety? How did you titrate up on lexapro. I might have to do that. Do you take the requip because of lexapro causing jitterness? Thanks
