Depression
"I tried a whole other whack of anti-depressants before trying Remeron and nothing. I mean, nothing worked for me. In fact, other anti-depressants made me more depressed. I mean seriously deeply darkly depressed but not Remeron. Remeron, honestly, is a dream medicine for me. It has improved my cat allergies by 80%, my sleep by 90% and my mood by 80%. It&#039;s amazing. However, it&#039;s true what they say about the munchies. I have to tell myself, almost nightly, that no, I don&#039;t need to get up and make a stack of pancakes at 11 pm. I have dreams about food, chocolate, donuts. It&#039;s pretty funny. The other side effect is my hands are swollen (edema), that side effect I&#039;m not liking but we&#039;ll see how it goes. I&#039;ve been on it for 2 months now."
