> Hi jules
Glad to hear u are still Remeron free... and again I agree it is long withdrawl effects.. these are VERY powerful drugs and it takes a long time to recover.. You say uyou were on Remeron for 6/7yrs?? yes, well of course it will take a long time to get back to balance.
I think uyou are on the right track... I was on for three years so I dont expect to feel llike me totally for 3yrs..hopefully it will be sooner but I will be patient...
We all have ups and downs and no one is 100% feeling good all the time... maybe all of our expectations are too high at this time.. we need to lower the bar and just keep going.Im off 4months now.. a down time yesterday but a bit better today... just going to work through it

p.s.: it's pretty clear to me based on everybody's experiences on this board and in conversation with other people that discontinuation syndrome can definitely last a lot longer than the doctors say it should. so i do think that could be contributing to how you're feeling (and maybe me, too). it's hard to make the call, though. i hope you feel better soon!
