Sertraline vs Mirtazapine

ive been on Sertraline for a few months but when the GP put me up to 100mg it gave me horrendous diarrhoea. He's just changed me into Mirtazapine 30 mg at night which is apparently the only one I can change onto immediately. Having red a few things on here, I'm wondering if this is too high a dose to start off with. I don't mind it making me sleep as I have trouble there but I have to get up in the mornings. Also I don't want to put a lot of weight on obviously. Anyone got any advice for me please?

I’ve been on mirtazapine for 11 years and found it the best so far but don’t think it’s working for me right now so have tried many others but they don’t agree with me . I’m due to start setraline today but am nervous of the side effects, what are they like ?
