Tomorrow starts week 9 since the last 7.5

Posted , 10 users are following.

7+ years on 45 mg, + 1 year on 7.5, now 56 days off the stuff. The 56 days have been awful, and I am still not out of the woods yet. I f you are considering an antidepressant, pretend that this stuff doesn't exist. I know, some people swear by it, but my research indicates that more swear at it. I feel like I have had the worse case of the flu that you could have, for 8 weeks. The severity of the wd symptoms haven't been the same the whole time, but even the "good" days were bad, just good relative to horrible. To all of you who are thinking about withdrawing, or are in the process and fighting it with all your might, I wish you well. And if you have made the trip, I salute you! Take care, David

    Hi Guys, 

    what I wanted to get around to saying and maybe wasn't clear is that after a certain amount of WD time you may have actually aquired something else. So, don't do what I did and blame it all on mirt WD, although im sure mirt WD triggered my other physical problems....no doubt. But keep going to the doctor and it a new symptom appears take note. Keep your journal and  keep pressing for medical support. Even though I know there is not much they want to deal with.maybe all of us creating a mirt withdrawal page on facebook might be  helpful because of the wide audience it would garner. Just a thought. That way we could cover Americans and UK. Just a thought. Who knows there may already be one! Best to everyone.....hi kathy....fudgey❤️❤️

      They accepted me today. In FB search bar, try typing Mirtazapine (Remeron).

      That's the name of the group.

      Was accepted today as well. I have to say that I prefer the idea of Rose's secret group. Hope we can help in getting that one sorted out pretty soon. Cheers Kathy x

      Yea, I quit that group pretty quick. Some strange people on there. And a lot of discussion about depression. Don't need that, thanks.
