> I had all sorts of sleeping problems until recently. I tried Trazodone, Ambien, Lunesta, and other sleeping aids. Finally, Remeron worked. Only a quarter pill is enough for me to sleep ten hours if I wanted to.

> It really is striking how well the Remeron works compared to the other medications.Remeron I believe helps REM sleep to an extent and at least I tripped the light fantastic so to speak in dreaming, at least at first, the sleep to wake cycle was really out of this world. Don't knock the increasing weight -- be glad you can fill out a nice figure :0 -- because I can tell you I filled out and then some, as a majority of people do on Remeron unfortunately because it is actually a very good antidepressant otherwise. I hope your weight remains steady, as it is notorious for emptying your refrigerator.
