> you got that right johnny.. vicious is putting it mildly... I'm kinda getting a little nervous reading all these posts with withdrawl symptoms.. but I have a saftey net set up ... my survivor bag FULL of things to help me feel better(all natural stuff), and my acupuncturist if things get too rough.. plus im continuing to exercise and will really go at it too if my anxiety gets bad...
But im trying not to let the fear get to me too much.. I quit altogether in 12days and have been taking about 2mg for the last 3.5 months.
Im not goiing back on benzos for this either..Ive been clean from all of that for 2yrs now and have managed fine without, again thanks to acupuncture.

It is withdrawal in my opinion. When I first tried remeron years ago I stayed on it for about 3 months and when I quit I was fine for a week and then wham, the worst anxiety I had in years. Well, they just upped my benzo, tripled it, and this helped but the benzo just made me depressed after some time. So, in my opinion, it is withdrawal. So many times the people here talk of insomnia and anxiety as being very severe. The good news is my anxiety has gone down but there is a low grade depression in conjunction with my heavy head. That is why I think I may need to go to zero from the 3.75 and try and gut it out. Remeron is viscious that is for sure.
