Not working so good for sleep
Posted , 7 users are following.
Hi
I have been on remeron for around 3 weeks now.
One week at 15 almost 2 at 30mg.
I'm now finding I'm not sleeping so good. I toss and turn all night and find it difficult to get out of bed when I should.
At what point in time do people take their's ?? A few hours before bed?? or just as they go to bed?
Yesterday I also had the strange effect of having lots of energy but not knowing what to do with it. Still no emotions either , I think I'm gonna have to fake smiling / frowning the whole time I'm on this stuff.
Help!
Chris

My gp is useless and it's usually a month to get an appointment
I can't afford more time off sick to mess on with another med and endure it's awful side effects
No one can help me anymore .. I wish I could go back in time say six months which is not logical so there's not many other alternatives really ...

So are you carrying on with the mirtazapine?

I am anxious about a lot of things and the medication isn't helping so far.
What time do you get up in the mornings?.
I'm thinking maybe it's because I'm not in a propper routine . I'm normally recall being awake at 7 but lie there till after 9 knowing I'm in for another shitty day
Last night I couldn't fix on anything and I ate out of boredom.
Tried watching tv , ps3 , tidying up but just felt full of energy but numb, so nothing satisfied.
Went out today and have felt so irritable and couldn't wait to get home .. I have to keep telling myself it's only 3 weeks but I'm starting to feel like I'm gonna end up on psych ward or worse. I'm tempted to drink alcohol tonight as some sort of release but I know that will make things worse

Yesterday was my first good day during the afternoon as I had a bit energy.
My biggest anxieties are being off work and the holiday I'm going on with mates in mid May.
I worry I I'll feel like this in a foreign country surrounded by happy people drinking. None know about my depression .
The fact this drug can take over 3 months to work scares the hell out of me. Whenever I talk to people I just feel like I want to get away and I currently hate everyone .. I'd just love to have the level of emotions they take for granted.
All I see for the rest of my life is misery.. can I not just feel happy for even a few secojnds of one day?

I really appreciate you taking the time .
I was so looking forward to my holiday last year.. and now I can't feel anything about anything . I keep torturing myself with thoughts that I'll wake in a real black hole when I am there
You are so right about the feeling of screaming on the inside
For me it's more deprrssion than anxiety x
