> does it have sexual side affects? In reading a couple articles, they dont mention it like they do with other meds. Also, is it good for anxiety?

> Thanks in advanceHi Canyon17,
I've only had a few very brief (couple day) trials with Remeron. It definitely worked for anxiety--in fact this and sleep improvement were the primary effects for me. I experienced no sexual side effects. I'm sure you'll learn that sedation and weight gain are notorious with this med, but many say the sedation wanes and weight gain can be avoided. Not to scare you but if you develop flu-like symptoms this can be serious so report this to your doc asap if it happens (less than 1 in 1000).
I am extremely med-sensitive. I can't even take an SSRI. That said, I'm considering a more meaningful trial of Remeron in the near future.
Good luck and health...Peace...Saturn.
