hagar Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I swear by it for depression, though I'm on 175mg. When I first started it, 25mg knocked me on my ass, but I've been on it over a year and it no longer helps me sleep. But it's still the best med I've ever taken for depression. I hope it works for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessamine Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I have. Was put on it for sleep and fibro. It did put me to sleep but it was a strange sleep where I felt like I could never quite make it to proper sleep. More like dozing all night. I also felt too groggy in the morning to function so eventually went off it. My mum has been taking it for a couple of years though and likes it okay.

Guest Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I'm on a pretty high dose, 250 mg. I take it for depression and to help with pain. At 250 mg, it knocks me out pretty quickly and consistently. There are some side effects when you get that high that I'd rather not have but I put up with them since it's a really good med for me. For me, this is the only AD that works every single time. It also works fairly quickly. There is a blood test that can be given to see if you're in the correct range. They usually won't run it unless you're taking a high dose but it is available. I hope it works for you, as well as it does for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jt07 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 It didn't put me to sleep, but once I was asleep, I found it impossible to get up the next day. It had a really bad hangover for me. Honestly, I spent my teens in an amitriptyline (Endep) stupor which I regret. Remeron is also very sedating, but it's different in that I get sleepy right away, but I don't have that hangover.

WinterRosie Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Maybe it was the 100mg temaz interacting with it that led to the hangover? Just a thought... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
