> I am taking 15mg remeron every night for nearly 7 weeks now, i am abit afraid to up the dose as this is the ONLY med that has been ok with me as every single ssri snri and trylic gave me bad side affects... anyways.. one day i am ok hypo, mind doing overtime then the next day i am low and when my freind comes with her baby i gets a vision (picture in my head) that i am harming him, like i am gonna do something that is wrong kinda thing i dont want to tell you all as i am scared to say... anyways is this normal? i am scared to tell anybody..

> ThankyouI think there is a big difference bt seeing these kinds of things popping into your head and having a kind of compulsion or desire which accompanies the thoughts. Are you wrried because you feel like you consciously want to hurt others (thinking of how to formulate a plan for hurting the baby instead of just seeing the images/thoughts) or are you worried because these terrible things that pop into your head are making you feel like subconsciously you may want to do something like that? I am not a therapist but I would say the former is dangerous to others but the latter probably isnt. At any rate, do you have a therapist you trust to call?
Have you tried Wellbutrin? I dont do well on SSRIs or anything which works on seratonin, but Wellbutrin worked for me with no freakiness. it felt very natural and my mood really improved
