I have been off mirtazapine for a week. In the last few days I have experienced quite bad anxiety. I'm not sure whether I am strong enough to cope with this. It would be easy to go back on the pills. I have some valium but during the latest anxiety attack I didn't think to take them. My sleeping is becoming more erratic. My husband goes away this week to Brussels on business and my son is also away on a school trip. I will be taking a sleeping tablets to cope with this. If my phone my psychiatrist it will be more pills. Any suggestions of support or tactics will be gratefully received. If I can't cope I'll be back on the pills.
