    Hi Cerrie,

    Having passed through what you're feeling now, i can assure you if it hasn't got better yet it most definitely will.

    Mirtazapine takes up to 2-3 weeks to fully kick in and once it does you will feel the benefits. I started on a 15mg dose and I am now, only three months in, feeling like it's time to kick the bucket and begin the withdraw.

    At first i felt drained, sleepy all the time, foggy thoughts and struggled to show emotion. This subsided within a few weeks and I've never felt better!

    Hope this helps, best of luck!

    Alex
