I was on 15 mg Remeron for 18 months, but was sick of sleeping 18 hours a day, so I went off it slowly. While I've had some anxiety, hyperventilating and nausea, it seems to be abating after about 2 weeks off the drug. I was taking Wellbutrin in the AM [still am], and Remeron at night.
I think the best thing is to increase exercise. I have also done some relaxation tapes, which have helped a lot. Just hang in there, and don't give up. There's no law that says we have to always be on medication. Unless someone is severely depressed and/or suicidal, I feel it's a good idea to go medication-free for periods of time.
