> Regardless of whether one will gain weight on Remeron or not, I strongly recommend that people give Remeron a try, because it is perhaps the best medication that has come out in the last 5 years. And I will explain why:

With all respect. Remeron will not improve OCD. We have used the drug here in Sweden for severel years. Of all clinical I spoke with, most of them are disipointed about its antidepressant effect. Its a great drug as an add on. For exampel efexor+Remeron. Or ssri+Remeron.
Its also great for sleep.Best wishes//Petter
