Hi Joy

my doctor has prescribed this for me, im not going to take it as its mainly for bad depression and mine is anxiety, so im going to look for alternative medicine instead, im fed up of telling him ive got anxiety not depression, but as usual they only hear what they want to.sorry i cant be of more help

hi joy,

i have been on mirtazapine for 2 years as it was the only one that worked for me and i found it to be a great help, i have now been off my anti d's for 2 weeks now and i am feeling good.

only you know if you want to take them but i was at my lowest point in my life and at breaking point and i was just so relieved to find something that worked for me and helped me gain some weight.

take care

Hi I have been on Mirtazapine for about a year now, currently combined with Venlafaxine although I am currently being weaned off the Venlafaxine as my psychiatrist wants to try something else.

The only problem I experienced was a feeling of dizziness when I first started on it, but this only lasted for the first couple of weeks and then passed.

I was started on it to try and help me sleep better as I was only getting about 10 hours sleep in a week, the majority of the time it does help me to sleep.

Like all anti-depressants though it's not right for everyone and while it may work for one person it might not work for the next. The best advice I can give is to at least give it a try and see if it works for you.

Good luck
