Worried about my relationship

Hi I have had insomnia for over a year and been taken mirtazapine  for 4 days now and since then I have bein off with my girlfriend and worried cause before i took these pills I always wanted to be around her and now I like to be alone and don't wanna lose her and confused why I feel this way 

Can mirtazapine make you feel this way and is it worth keep taking them if it's affecting my relationship?

    Hi everyone reacts differently to mirtazapine if your using them to sleep that soon wears off it did with me anyway I'm not keen on antidepressants very addictive and side effects if it's going to ruin your relationship your going to feel worse maybe another antidepressant if you feel you really need them.x

      Yeah it was mostly for sleep as Iv had insomnia for over a year but obviously it's made me depressed aswell so feel like I can't win 

      Especially taking pills they make you feel worse in long run

      My advice would be to not take them it's not worth it doctors seem to hand out antidepressants like sweets can't your doctor give you something else for sleeping just for awhile anyway. These antidepressants can cause so many problems.im just giving you my opinion and experience x

      Oh dear I hope they can help you but I don't think antidepressants are the answer there addictive as well. Did the other tablets help you even though you were addicted xx

      Yeah I got addicted to zipiclone which was the sleeping pill then started to be all shakey and had time off work but o still didn't know what to do but decided to stop taking mirtazapine and for 2 days now have had a non stop migraine that won't go away so fingers crossed it goes away soon

      Your initial comment was rude and lacking any support so I’m afraid posting again won’t get much of a response Gretel
