Posted , 9 users are following.
I have just started taking mirtazapine 7.5mg my gp started me on a low dose and in a weeks time I will increase to 15mg. So far I feel very tired. I just can't wait to feel normal again and for the lowness to leave me. Can anyone offer me any advice ?

I am keeping a diary and fortunately I feel I have a good GP who is listening to me and since starting on mirt has recommended that I see him in on a monthly basis. Are you seeing your GP regularly for reviews? Hope you feel better soon.

Hope you are doing OK on the drug, don't let my experience put you off because I didn't findthe side effects unbearable and was glad to get rid of the anxiety.

I found the lower dose more sedating but that was ideal when I first started as I wasn't sleeping and my anxiety was off the scale.
With each increase I've found that they become less sedating and after a few days of increase the side effects diminish.
It hasn't altered my sleep either..I've managed to sleep well on every dose.
My anxiety has almost gone but depression still lingers for now. It also hasn't given me the munchies or made me gain weight yet as most people report.
Give it a little time chick. It will settle and once you up your dose,I'm sure you will find it very beneficial xx
