> Hi, thanks for the response. Did your weight ever stabilize while you were/are on remeron or did you just keep gaining?
First time I went on Remeron (without stimulants) I gained 30 lbs in the span of two months. I had never been overweight before that. Once I stopped, despite losing most of the weight, I was never able to get back to my original weight. I decided to try it again but this time adding stimulants to counteract the weight gain but it didn't work. As soon as a gained 8 lbs, I stopped. Is the Remeron mainly for sleep? If so perhaps you could try Gabapentin. I believe at lower dosages it does not affect weight as bad as Remeron.
