Thank you to those who replied to my post about Mirtazipine for anxiety. I took the first full 15mg dose about an hour before going to bed last night and........didn't get a wink of sleep until after 3.30am due to restless legs syndrome. Having looked at the possible side effects in more detail sure enough that's one of them. Oh well, I guess I'll have to try another approach.

They gave me restless legs in a week. Changed to Sertraline. They have been ok. Hope you find one that suits you.

I’ve read many articles in which people write that doctors shouldn’t be so quick to hand out prescriptions for powerful psycho-active drugs such as mirtazapine and SSRIs. My experience with them puts me firmly on their side.
