Re: increasing from 15mg to 30mg
Unfortunately 30mg didn't help me as a major trigger for my anxiety and as 15mg has an anti-histamine effect, but not 30, my insomnia returned so I had to go back to the lower dosage.
That said, if insomnia hadn't been a problem I would have stuck it out because I find there are less side-effects for me on mirt than other drugs I've tried.
As got GPs, they're not specialists, they have a range of disorders to treat. We have the time (and with the internet, the tools) to research medications and their effects in depth.
Most GPs have adapted to the internet generation, and don't mind you arriving with a little knowledge, in my experience.
