Brave enough to talk about weight gain?! ;)

Posted by pretty_paints on August 17, 2004, at 11:20:21

I know remeron causes weight gain. It's everywhere you look on the internet. And everyone's always like "oh yes I gained weight on Remeron".

But I was wondering if there are any people out there brave enough to actually be more specific? Are we talking a few pounds, or much more? If you don't want to tell me your actual weight, maybe you could just say how much you increased by?

I'm naturally very skinny (about 105 lbs). I do love food, but my appetite has never been huge and even when I do binge out, I just don't seem to put on weight. Maybe its my metabolism. Anyway, when my pdoc said about this side effect I was like "wooh, super"! Its not that I'm trying to rub it in the faces of people who are trying to loose weight. Its just I used to really hate it when I was younger. People are usually quite sensitive and PC about larger people, but thought nothing of coming up to me and being like "geez, you're so skinny! Are you, like, anorexic??" (which I never was). And even people who arent quite so blunt, girlfriends and the like, still manage to deal you these insults disguised as compliments. Its considered rude the other way round, but a compliment this way. Grr!

Oh look at me, I'm blabbing! Anyway, I'm fine with my weight now and just tried to accept myself. But still I was interested about remeron, now that I'm going to be starting it, and how much weight it actually makes people gain.

Thanks dudes
