Hi All
New here, sort of, I did have an account before but I can't remember my login..and it doesn't recognise my email...
Anyway, I was on Citalopram for 12+ years and came off back in the summer to see if my sex drive returned, it did! Unfortunately following a relationship breakup so did my anxiety/depression and I started Mirtazapine 3 weeks ago.
Side effects haven't been so bad, very tired on 15mg, headaches for a couple of days, stepping up to 30 I've noticed an increased appetite and vivid dreams, I also had the head zap thing for a while.
I did one week of 15mg which I think improved my anxiety a little and then stepped up to 30 for the last 13 days and I'm still feeling really low, should I give it more time? I keep reading about people who felt so much better after a few days to a week!
Finding it really hard feeling so flat all the time interspersed with crying bouts, how the hell did it all get so bad?! I want the old 'me' back..
I guess I just needed to write my thoughts down in a place where people might understand how it feels..
