Well guys 20yrs!!! and always told there was no problem with me taking this for such a long time and my main issue was sleep deprivation. I am coming up to a month of aggressively coming off of mirtazipine

with the aid of nytol for the sleep and I have not been feeling great. The tingling sensations and headaches have started, lack of appetite upset stomach dull feeling sometimes quite irritable, so many different withdrawal symptoms but I am menopausal too and began the medication I felt as a result of early menopause not being diagnosed so it's a big ball of fun.

I am determined to eliminate this drug from my life. My main incentive and positive is the weight loss it is finally happening AND THE WEIGHT GAIN WAS CONSTANT BEFORE!!!

So this makes me hopeful that with the reduction in weight I will start to feel better. I still fill my prescription to have them in case I feel extremely uncomfortable and I felt the need for this in the past month 2 times. And on each occasion I took a 45mg pill. I felt better the following day but still not 100% I will keep you all updated as I have been on them for so long and my experience my be helpful to someone
