Dr. Kramer,
I am kind of new to this site and I hope you can answer a question for me. I take pamelor(50mg at bedtime) lithobid(300 mg 2x daily) for AD booster, and 7.5 mg tranxene at night. Have been fine for years with occasional sleep problems, but I can't tolerate any increase in pamelor. I have started remeron about 6 weeks ago since I had trouble sleeping again and also in attempt to wean off some of my current meds onto something with less side effects. I love the sleep, but the spaciness is troubling. I am at 30 mg and went up in dose, but felt worse so I am back at 30 again and felt better within a day or so. What causes this spacey feeling and how can one reduce this feeling? Should I try a lower dose of remeron? Caffeine helps, but this used to adversley affect my anxiety. Also, I seem to feel WORSE after working out especially aerobic excercise and this is VERY troubling. Does any of this make sense? Sorry to throw so much at you. I am intrigued by Sam-e, but am not sure if this would benefit someone like me with depression/anxiety issues. Thanks for the help.
John
