Hi Francesco,
> I slept something like 12 hours but I feel fine. I'm having some hands' shacking and some trouble in getting a good erection and I attribute the first to remeron and the second to desipramine.I always needed a bit more sleep on Remeron, but it wasn't excessive. Maybe nine hours.
> My questions are: is there any Remeron user who didn't experience weight gain ?
I stopped the weight gain by exercising more than usual, and I greatly reduced my calorie intake from what it was before I started Remeron. I counted every calorie. So the weight gain never got out of hand. The stuff can alter your metabolism - I definitely gained weight without eating more. If you do find you are gaining, you can probably keep it to a minimum by being disciplined. Just keep an eye on it and try to compensate accordingly.
> Is it true that he doesn't have sexual side effects ?
I never noticed any.
> Does the oversleeping pass with time ?
Hmmmm...I don't know what to tell you about that. What dose are you on?
Good luck. I thought it was a good antidepressant.
