"i have a panic disorder and my doctor put me on the remeron. i thought it was great at first. it caused my panic attacks to slow down and my anxiety to die down. then the side effects started. i had an increased appetite and put on nearly 30lbs. i didn&#039;t mind that, but then it also began causing me to become very irritable. i started feeling like i was going into blind rages. i immediately contacted my doctor and switched medicines. use caution."
