Have been on many psych drugs in the past, and was for a week or so on Remeron which gave me significant side effects and so I had to call/visit the doctor and right away got off the Remeron. I do NOT recommend this for anyone. It is too risky. Remeron gave me significant trouble with my Memory/Concentration. I had a very difficult time working. I could only do the easy things and could barely even drive. I had to tell myself to stop at the stop signs. I need my brain to work, and it affected my ability to remember things, it affected my ability to understand what I was reading. It affected my ability to read written notes. It gave me significant trouble in speaking and walking, it gave me a retarded or lower in intelligence affect. My speech has NOT been the same and this was FIVE years ago that I took it, and only for a week or so! I speak slow and then later my speech changes. Doctors do NOT know how to fix it, and I went to like four doctors and the hospital to fix my voice changes. I am now UNABLE to work. I have worked for about three years. I can't get disability either at least not yet. Remeron caused me to go to the psych hospital as I had difficulty at home with family coping, and dr could not figure out what to do. Do NOT take it!! Do not let it ruin your memory and do not let it ruin your concentration abilities.
