I was on Mirtazapine for 4 weeks starting at 15mg ,30mg then 45 mg with a view to being discharged from hospital.Apparently I have a very sensitive metabolism and it made me very aggressive and suicidal.It was stopped immediately so I had severe hallucinations.I tried Abilify but passed out several times.The alternatives offered were Quetiapimne and Sodium Valporate,both of which can have bad side effects . So I declined to go on them.then tried Abilify again as it is a 'clean' drug.I left hospital after 9 weeks and only 3 days on Abilify.It has made me very restless ,so I am now on Diazepam 3 times daily until it settles which can take up to 3 weeks.I don't think the doctors get me as I have never had mental health issues before .I am 55 and this all started after 'talking therapy' at the Doctors,which I had as I was declining in mental health due to my husbands adultery 4 years ago.
