> I only managed eight days on Remeron, and it was frightening -- I was so out of control with anger from day one. I frightened myself, frightened my husband, and just couldn't take it no matter how much I wanted to prove to my then doctor that I was trying to comply with his orders and trying to get better.

There was no question in my case what was going on, since I am normally not able to recognize or express anger at all -- that's a big part of my problem, in fact...Just thought I would chime in on this as well.. I was angry on Remeron as well from day one and it didn't get better no matter what I did with the dose or how long I took it (was on it for several months). There are several other meds that provoked more anger than Remeron, but it is still easily in my top ten list of anger-provoking meds. Wellbutrin and Buspar (of all things), and Keppra, Zonegran were a little worse than Rem.
