I'm using this medication in conjunction with Effexor XR, clonazepam, and Vyvanse to help sleep and to help with my as-of-yet depression that hasn't responded to medicines. It knocks me OUT, but I can force myself to do things (not complicated) before I actually need to sleep. Haven't been on it long enough to assess it as far as depression.
I guess we'll see.

Initially, I was thrilled with Remeron for treating my sleeplessness and restless nights. Then, I realized that I had gained considerable weight - like 15 pounds in one month due to insatiable eating. It wasn't worth it to me so I quit taking it. Still working on the pre-Remeron figure 2 months later.

Really good for sleep. I don't like it as an antidepressant, however. It makes me too hungry, and when I took it for an entire month I did not like the effects it had on me. I only use it for sleep occasionally, however, I do begin to build up a tolerance if I take it too many nights in a row.
