My advice? ..keep a daily diary of your feelings/emotions/behaviour/thoughts etc etc. Uselful for monitoring its effects on YOU as an individual ...and for feeding back to GP so he/she can assess effectiveness etc.
Let us all know how you feel tomorrow please..
Regards and much peace!

Maybe Mirtazapine is not the only AD you need. There are combinations out there that can make the world of a difference!
I feel you. I thought last year that things would never get better... even early this year. And then I was put on a cocktail of sertraline, bupropion and mirt and I feel myself again. Better than ever before.
Your cocktail may be different ,but I am sure your GP will be able to help or have you see a psychiatrist who is familiar with more medications that can help you.

You are not alone, you will get better and tomorrow you may well be feeling a lot better - this Mirt' has a weird effect - one thing is for sure - when you have a good nights' sleep Mirt works for you, if you suddenly have added stress in your life, feel over-tired causing you to have a bad's night sleep, the next day it seems twice as bad as if you're not on the remedy at all, HOWEVER then a good night sleep comes along and you're up again.
Crying is a good sign that you are getting "stuff" shifted out of your system - Mirt' has the opposite effect on me - numbs me from emotion really.
I wish you well, keep in touch & hope tomorrow is a better day x

I asked my doctor if I could go and see a Psychiatrist and she prescribed 15 mg of Mirt and 150 mg Ven. I was dubious about this as both had stopped working. However she said that sometimes they're not so good singly but as a combination they were usually very good. That was last July and I am completely back to normal now and that was in less than a week. I couldn't believe it when one morning I woke up without that awful feeling I always had. I don't know where you live though you sound as if you may be a Scot. I used to live in Scotland and that was a word they would use. If you are in GB I would ask your GP if you can see a Psychiatrist as they are the experts in drugs. Anyway I do hope you start to feel better soon.
