Yes, one issue with these meds is their ability to increase levels of anxiety and with this comes the natural additional or intensified symptoms which would be seen with any trigger. Increase the anxiety levels of someone with OCD and watch all their thoughts & behaviours become much stronger and wide ranging, reduce it and they reduce/go too.

Yes, I've been getting lots of myoclonic jerks since being on mirtazapine, although I'm on other stuff too. Not sure of the reason as like PDU said, I don't think it's in the side effects, but my doctors aren't worried about it.

Only been taking 15mg for 3 days but the hypnic jerks are increasing.
Scared , no I need help with my depression and anxiety so will try to keep taking them.
Do you think they may get better if I carry on with the medication. no other meds only omperazole.
The twitching has stopped, but after 2 weeks I feel that I want to stop the mirtazapine, is it safe to stop , I have been taking 15mg.
I have carried on with mitrazapine 15mg and feel a bit better, but have developed what I think is exploding head syndrome.Loud noises in head when going to sleep, this can happen up to 30 times a night.My sleep is now really affected.
I'm going to gp on Wednesday, has anyone had this. Just not getting enough sleep now which makes me even more anxious.
You can experience those loud bangs when in the hypnagogic and hypnopompic stages of sleep. Anxiety is known to make sleep phenomena worse and since antidepressants can increase anxiety you can see symptoms like this emerge. Those sleep stages are normal brain functioning and anyone can experience all sorts of strange sleep phenomena during them.
