I've been on Remeron for about 8 years. For me the weight gain was a godsend. I was about 40 pounds underweight due to my anxiety. I am now about 15-20 pounds heavier than I would like to be but am well within the "health" range for my bodytype. You might find this odd but my ideal dose seems to be about 4mg. You read that right 4mg. 15mg was way too much for me, I went up to 45mg thinking things would get better. That only caused things to get alot worse. Many people who suffer with anxiety are very sensitive to drugs, but some aren't. I'm just one who is.
I also learned a huge amount about my disorder from a guy who has gone down this road before. His name is Josh and I found him at www.anxietymentor.com. If you ever want to ask a nutrition/exercise (nonmed) type question, this is the guy.
