I took remeron for a while and never noticed the effects of it. However, I was given adavan as a prn and I took double or triple the dosage one time to see what it would feel like. So, I stopped taking them altogether because I knew I couldn't trust myself with them and I didn't want to be "using" them. I don't think Mouse is addicted because there are none of the negative consequences normally associated with addiction. If Mouse's drowsiness is hindering her, than I think that is the only valid reason for her to ask for a change in medication.
