Admittedly I'm not up on the pharmacologic properties of Remeron, but my personal experience makes me certain it tweaks your metabolism. I do believe the people who say it makes them hungry too. I really cut back from my normal eating, snacked on raw veggies, increased exercise, ate small portions of bread, etc. It was nice to be able to eat *more* of everything once I stopped it. This drug is notorious for the weight gain, but if it's working well for you, that's important. It's probably worth working with it and seeing if the weight issue is manageable for you. Good luck.
