> MEDS. 9.30 pm last night: 850 mg Lithium, 4 mg Valium, 7.5 mg Remeron.

> Fell asleep rapidly till 3 am, pee, went back to sleep. Disturbed sleep, brief awakenings, till about 6.30 - 7.00 am.
> Out of bed 7.30 am.

> Now 7.53 am feel tired and a bit hung-over. Still have to have breakfast and a cup of tea.

> CONCLUSION: 7.5 mg is a lot better than 15 mg. I think I will be staying with 7.5 mg from now on. This is as good as it gets. Though once I did sleep right through from 11 pm to about 6.30 am without awakening on 7.5 mg. My diagnosis by the way is "Manic depression - currently in remission"

Hopefully the morning hangover feeling will subside. Sounds like 3am is a common awakening time for you and that 7.5 is less sedating than 15 for you also. This seems reasonable because I think you're mainly getting an antihistamine effect at both doses. Peace...Saturn.
