Hi,
Just wanted to post about my experience on mirtazapine....
A few of you might have read my previous posts about my health anxiety regarding the disease vcjd.this has caused me endless dispair,fear,anxiety and stress,not to mention buckets of tears : (
Anyway I'm still working through this with the support of my mental health crisis team.however I have been on mirtazapine for 6 weeks of various strengths.since beginning on this I have had horrendous depersonalisation which appeared to worsen as the dose was increased under the insistence of the psyciatrist,who was adamant that the meds were not causing it.last week my dose was upped to 45mg added with quetiapine 150mg,which reulted in a trip to a and e as I felt like I wasn't even in control of my body.I can't say if this was a thought or a feeling,but obviously my first fear was that this was the disease.I was terrified.I decided there and then to stop the mirtazapine,which has eased my depersonalisation.
I'm just wondering though why I have this new fear that I feel that I'm going to lose control of my body.I feel that I am just moving withought thinking if that makes sense but i just don't know if Im creating this fear as it kind of matches in with my health anxiety?can anyone relate to my fear that I'm literally going to forget how to move.I know I must sound silly.
