Hi
I really need some advice however thought it best to give you an idea of my circumstances. Around 9 weeks ago I had an inner ear disorder which I believe was the start of my anxiety (having never suffered before). More recently 2 weeks ago I flew home from Spain which caused problems with my ears once again, I first noticed symptoms of constant mind chatter just rubbish, then a few intrusive thoughts which I think were bought on by anxiety (this made me more anxious) trembling legs, dry heaving, just not feeling great in the mornings hence leading to a bigger problem with insomnia.
This led me to a GP appointment thinking perhaps I was depressed but just really desperate for sleep at night (as it had effected my eating to). GP gave me Zopiclone which worked the first night but not great the 2nd, then thought perhaps Mirtazapine would help.
I have for the past 12 nights taken a 15mg Mirtazapine however even on that I am not sleeping great, waking feeling a little anxious which is so unlike me. Hence I wish to stop the Mirtazapine, having only taken it for 2 weeks would I still need to reduce dose first? I know I may have issues with sleep still but I do at the moment anyway and realise that there are other ways to deal with this and if I do not need medication would rather stop early on than months down the line when it would be harder.
I know my question may sound a little petty with regards to how some of you guys feel at different times however I am now anxious about stopping the tablet. It seems a vicious circle at the moment.
Many thanks for your help in advance.
