The doctor put me on mirtazapine 15mg just over a year ago, they seem to help at first,then up it to 30mg, oh boy my restless legs double, and my stomach became bloated and terrible weight gain,so went back down to 15mg. I now wake up in the mornings, so depressed and very anxious, stop going out don't want see anyone,because family and so called friends, don't or wanto understand, because they are not suffering from this disability which came on to me overnight, the doctor told me anyone can get clinical depression for no reason. Horrible horrible illness, it has changed my whole life. Now the doctor, a has asked for help for a psychiatrist and he told her to tell to now take mirtazapine 15mg with 10mg escitaloprám,is anyone else taken this mixed combination.

Hi sweety

I’m in mirt 30 mg

Over a year now , I came good now it’s al starting again , yes I’ve put on a lot of weight but the anxiety is still there and I feel awful on them. I’m seeing my pysc next month and I want to change it.

Vision changed , always trembling nauseous etc etc

See a psychiatrist hun

Let me know how you get on

Try to get out and keep moving , they are just thoughts and feelings, they can’t hurt you,,, just make you feel crappy !!!
