> I've been on Remeron for about 5 wks. It's probably one of the better ones I've tried during my med-go-round. The side effect profile is pretty minimal compared to other meds.
> crazymeds said it makes you crave sugar like a stoned teenager, and I've found that to be occasionally true (but not a constant thing). So I haven't gained much weight on it thus far.I'm glad you are having success with it. Reading anecdotal accounts of Remeron trials is unsettling...here and there people report no to minimal weight gain, but SO many people report massive weight gain that it's hard to feel like it's not necessarily going to be that way for me. I can't deal with substantial weight gain, I'm pretty sure that is a truism about myself.
Take care,
