does anyone have anything positive to say about this med.

I currently take 30 mg. of Remeron. Give it some time to kick in - may take up to 3 - 4 weeks. 30 mgs. is a good dose and is typically the therapeutic dosage. My feeling is if you can get results with less dosage, it's best for the body and possible side effects.
I take it because it does help with my anxiety, but I was also taking xanax with it.

I'm in the process of weaning off of my xanax currently.
Good luck - I hope you see some improvement soon.
