Hi Shelli;
I've been on Remeron since January 2002 with great success. Initially it was sedating, but that passed in a few weeks. Also, it did create some irritability, but that also passed within about 3 weeks. I didn't gain weight on it until I was on it 10 mos, but the weight gain was due to binge eating on my part over a personal crisis. The weight is coming off again. I think most people only take Rem at night because of it's sedating effect. When I first started taking it, it would knock me out within half an hour, now it takes about 2 1/2 - 3, I sleep well and wake refreshed and energized. Hope this helps.
