my experience being on 30mg Mirtazapine for TWO MONTHS

[@jessbranc243]

I hope you are doing better as a whole. You seem like a genuinely amazing person

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

I am doing a bit better, life is still a struggle but easier than this time last year. Thank you 💙

[@abacdse]

It’s amazing for anxiety and sleeping but did zero for my depression

[@zephorianvephorian777]

Happy to hear that you are feeling slightly better the past week or so. I hope this continues for you. Whether it's the medication or not that is having this effect, only time will tell.. 🙏

[@megaelectric1]

Glad you’re feeling better bro

[@Guerrero1187]

I know the feeling of this, I don’t know where it came from but it’s really difficult to deal with. I was just prescribed this med today. I got really high hopes for a chance.

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

Yeah it’s awful to deal with. I wish you all the best :)

I am a 74 year old male. I have been on 7.5 mg Mirtazapine for almost a year, along with 5 mg. of Olanzapine It does help with my anxiety, but it also kind of sedates me, makes me feel a bit groggy, and I need to nap in the afternoons. The other side effect for me is that it causes constipation, although I have found that taking a daily Magnesium Citrate supplement (2-3 200 gm. gummies) helps to offset this. I tried going off this med twice and but experienced very serious anxiety and panic attacks effects, so went back on them after 10 days of "withdrawal." The anxiety and panic attacks were something I had never experienced before. I don't like feeling like I HAVE TO take anything on a permanent basis so plan to ask my doctor about some alternatives.

I really appreciate your sharing your experience l! Thank you

[@natalieelizabeth8172]

I felt this except I don’t have twitching eyes I hear like a heartbeat in my ear, but my panic attacks came back 10x worse randomly & now they upped me to 30mg and prescribed me an as needed anxiety med, also it was making me sleepy at first but now it doesn’t

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

Ah that’s frustrating, I hope things balance out for you soon. I had bad super weeks last year but I was on 45mg at the time so dropped back down to 30mg and I’ve been relatively stable since.

[@theofilostzinikos3584]

this medicine is awesome. but I avoid it because it makes me very photosensitivity and the lights at night seem very intense

[@Ohkeh640]

Update? Pls come back

[@huiyingtanyayap]

how are u ? ware you still taking the med now ? i hope you are doing well !

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

I’m still taking 30mg and I’ve been on this for two years now. It continues to help me eat and sleep, I still suffer from depression and everything but this med has taken the edge off a little. Considering adding something else to the mix but unsure as my life circumstances can’t exactly be fixed by pills. Wish you all the best 💙

[@huiyingtanyayap]

@@rhysmentalhealth2521 thank you for your reply. I wish you all the best too. and hope you can completely come out from the depression someday. i agree that pill cant fix everything. i have the similar feeling. 🦾

[@chrisboult6610]

I've been on em 2 months I can't tell if they are working. Its making my skin oily as fuck . I feel groggy every morning after 10/11 hours sleep, I get the twitchy eye aswell

[@ADORABEL25]

What about libido

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

I wouldn’t say I noticed a difference, the depression and anxiety really dampens my libido. Although lately it has been better mainly due to increased exercise + eating better which mirt has helped with. Mirtazapine certainly didn’t make my libido worse if thats what’s worrying you :)

[@mmm__we]

Trying this today hope all goes well for me

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

Good luck, I hope it all works out for you :)

[@NirajPoudyal]

Are u still on it? How,s your health now?

[@rhysmentalhealth2521]

I’m still on mirtazapine. I upped to 45mg for a couple of months but it made me feel worse (I was puking multiple times per day due to it). I’ve now been back down to 30mg for a few months, it helps a little but I still struggle to eat and feel anxious/depressed a lot of the time.

[@NirajPoudyal]

@@rhysmentalhealth2521 me, I,ve been trying it for 2 months, now on 15 mg, I think I,ll go with it for few more days and taper off, let,s see. I wish u best for your health. Take 🤘

Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view !" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam ." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window ? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment ?"
