Hiya

I haven't taken mirt but I have a friend on here who was. She recently tapered off because she felt they were maybe responsible for her feeling rubbish.
She is writing a blog about it on the mirt forum on this site.

Hi
I'm taking mirt,and overall,I would say that its been a positive experience, however, the best person to advise you is your doctor,as everyone reacts differently to these sort of meds
Good luck

Hi, i was on mirtazapine for about 14 months and like you found them to be horrible, they did nothing for my anxiety in fact i think they made it worse, i gained weight, they left me lethargic, groggy and very heavy headed the next day.
My advice would be not to just stop taking them without consulting your Doctor, the withdrawals are quite bad even when trying to taper yourself.
I tried to just stop taking them and suffered horribly, i got very bad insomnia, my anxiety went through the roof , i was irritable and agitated and angry, eventually i had to go back on them and with my Doctor's help i gradually tapered of but it took me about 4 months to do so.
Speak to your Doctor, he will give you the best advice. :O)
