Having a very bad day? Remeron troubles

Posted by Tom Twilight on June 4, 2005, at 9:04:08

Hey everyone

This probably belongs on the withdrawal board, but I know more people here, so this is were I’m going to post.

I’m currently on 30mgs of Remeron/Mirtazapine, it seems to be working for depression, but I think I’m gaining weight; also it doesn’t work for Social Anxiety.
I recently came of Effexor XL without much trouble, and since I was feeling pretty good I though I might come of Remeron as well and try and lose some weight.

Impulsively, and stupidly I just stoped my Remeron cold turkey last night.
I hadn’t heard of many people having trouble with Remeron withdrawals, so I though it would be easy.

I woke up this meaning feeling very anxious and panicky, horrible experience, I never normally feel like that in the morning.
15mgs of Remeron calmed me down a bit, but I’m still feeling very low.

I’m don’t know what’s wrong with me at the moment, I’m up and down like the Proverbial Yo-Yo

Don’t really know what I should do now
I could try weaning of Remeron, or I could go back up to 30mgs
I don’t know what to do : (

Has anyone had a similar experience?
Is it withdrawal, or just rebound anxiety?
Most importantly are there any drugs that help with Remeron withdrawal?

 

Redirect: Remeron withdrawal
