In reply to Remeron and Xanax, posted by Elizabeth on February 29, 2000, at 10:51:20
> I have been suffering from anxiety and have tried different things, but the current med I am on is Remeron. This is my first week and have felt very groggy especially in the morning. I was initially cautious about taking the Xanax with it as I thought it increase the fog. The funny thing is that the Xanax actually makes me feel more alert. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Does Remeron seem to work well for anxiety in the long term?
I was given Remeron as a sleeping aid. It seems the higher the dose, the less the sedative effect. I was on 15mgs. I took it once, at 8:30pm, and could not get up the next day until almost noon!! Awful stuff! Never took it again. (hard to be a mom and do that!) There are plenty of antiety drugs out there that don't have that side effect. If anyone has any clue about a good one for sleep that doesnt have the hangover effect, let me know!!
