Remeron is an excellent AD. Next to the MAOI's it's my favorite. It worked very well for me for about 5 yrs. For me it was a far superior med than the ssri's-which I've grown to dislike very much. Yea, I gained some weight on it, but lost it when I stopped taking it. If you give it some time it'll definitely help you sleep as well. Overall, a good drug for Dep/anx. Good Luck.Tyler
