I have been taking remeron for 10 days. I am still in a fog and I can't tell that it is helping my depression yet. Has anyone taken this? How long until it works? Does the fog ever lift? I have a long history of having taken antidepressants but this is the first time on remeron. It is helping me sleep, which has been a life long problem. I do not like this fog. My doctor says give it 2 weeks, then we can increase it. I don't think I can take an increase in this fog. The first 5 days were very dark and more depressing for me. Any advice?????

Thank you. I am new on this board, I posted on these boards a few years ago. I just came back this weekend. So....you think I should wait this out and see what happens? I want to throw in the towel myself, but I know I am just thinking short term.

Yeah, I have heard that some meds don't work until they have been in your system a few months.
