When should Mirtazipine 15mg start to work properly??

[ProudDad95]

Hi all,

I'm a 25 year old male, a smoker but non-drinker, of 5'10" and about 10st, so fairly average height and build.

I took Sertraline 150mg from 2012 until about 2 weeks prior to starting Mirtazipine 15mg.

Sertraline was only giving me indigestion and often not having its effect like it once did; I was often ratty and agitated.

My GP switched me to Mirtazipine and he did warn me about it taking a bare minimum of 2 weeks to start showing its effect.

Obviously I'm probably just overthinking, but I just finished the first strip (two weeks worth), last night, but still feel slightly agitated, even as a baseline.

I previously mentioned some info about my shape and size and lifestyle, just want to know more if anything needs to be done on my end to influence the full effect along.

At times, I'm just feeling numb and a mixture of that and irritated.

I'm sure it'll start improving but please can somebody shed some light on how it tends to work, and what your experiences are with this medicine?

Thanks all and take care during these strange times,

Chris
