I just want to feel safe and content in my own home ! After a complete anxiety breakdown I've been living in hell for the past 4 months. I spent 7 weeks on sertraline and it was terrible !!! Now 8 weeks into mirtazipine 15mg and although I have moments of low anxiety I still don't feel good. I wake up very sad and I cry a lot l. It's the 6 weeks school holiday, stone I have always enjoyed spending with my son and this is making me feel like I can't ?????? will this ever stop ??

    Jessica, I feel your pain so sorry you are having a bad time of it.What was the problem with sertraline? I took mirtazapine and it made me feel depressed waking up as you are sad. All antdepressants have some sort of side effect you just have to find one that works for you. Hang in there ir will get better

      Sertraline made my anxiety worse it was unbearable I was turning up at A&E begging for help I couldn't stand it any longer and was advices to take mirtazipine as its sedating and helps with sleep and appetite, it was great for 2 weeks but then I started waking up so sad and now I'm crying daily and can't get happy about anything. Feel like I can't win I just want my life back

      Go back to the doctor and tell him whats going on. They will figure it out. Ach pill has its own side effects. There are many others.
