I hope you get some peace johnny. I know all people react differently to things, but I didn't have any of the symptoms you had when I went off remeron as far as the panic attacks/chest tightening going of for so long. I know there are debating feelings as to how long medication should affect you, but I personally wouldn't have been able to last more than 6 weeks of "giving it a try" med-free. If you need something else to feel normal and function, I don't think you should feel badly about it.
I agree that medications are too easly prescribed by doctors who really don't understand them, but I also believe there are plenty of people who do need medication.
I hope things improve for you soon.
