I was on 30 for 3 months but the sponge brain heavy head never left me and it made me my ocd worse. I then was off and had extreme anxiety which I didn't know was withdrawal.
I then went on 15 mg for sleep about a year later. It worked but made ocd worse and the head stuff wouldn't abate. I tolerated it for 3 years and it seemed like a dream. I went off for good last July and had sleeping problems, anxiety. Remeron also messes with the adrenals, so I am told so fatigue was a big part of it.
I tapered very slowly and cut the 7.5 mg in quarters. It is hard to say whether it is best cold turkey or not. I found it a nasty drug but the sleep is good, the only good for me. I had a lot of chest pressure too. Again, search the archives to get a lot of good info.
