Why is this so hard?
Posted , 6 users are following.
I’ve been on Mirtazapine since January and have been trying to come off it for a month I’m finally down to 11.25mg since last night and I’m questioning whether I’ll ever get off this med. it’s done nothing in fact I have new and scarier symptoms than I did before.
I’m suffering from:
•Prickling, pins & needles and numbness in my hands and feet
• internal Tremors now becoming external
•heart palpitations
•feelings of breathlessness
•feelings of losing control
•not quite being with it (spaced out)
•severe lethargy
•head rushes & head pressure
Honestly the list goes on.
I feel shocking and struggling to understand how and why this med is even on the market!!!
Any advice?

I’ve read that, when you google “coming off Mirtazapine” this sites threads come up a lot... Why is this medication on the market? I was hospitalised in a Mother Baby Unit for 5 weeks and was put on this day 1 by week 3 I was suicidal and much worse than when I went in. They insisted I stay on it... I have tried 5 different SSRIs and then they tried me on Seroquel.... Wow... Never again.
I’ve actually started seeing a naturopath who’s checking for hormonal imbalances... To try 7 different meds and find nothing working surely something else is up.
But coming off this med is horrendous! I wish I’d stopped at week 3.
