Hi. It didn't affect my appetite, but I put on the pounds anyways! Very slowly, like 2 pounds or so a week.
Have you talked to your doc about the skin crawling feeling? I know there's a medicine, benztropine, that helps with that kind of side effect. Or, maybe (hopefully

) the side effect could go away on it's own after awhile(wouldn't that be nice!). You should call your doc anyways, just to let them know what's up.
I hope this helps. I loved remeron, it made me so happy it was great!
