It's been just over a week and I'm doing much better on 15mg of mirtazapine at night, the first few days I was knocked out but iv got my mojo back, I sleep so much better, after an hour of taking it I can't keep my eyes awake, I sleep rightthrough the night and if iv gone to bed early I get upto 11hrs sleep, giving me lots of energy the next day, iv been doing lots of walking and I am watching my calories as yu can put on weight with this as it increases yr appitite, I personally haven't felt that.
I really was reluctant going on this AD but after researching other ADs both me and my Gp agreed this was the best option for me, the Diazepam I was becoming very irritable and angry, and there only for crisis, since taking mirtazapine I have calmed down a lot.
I decided to reinstate the risperidone too so I have a combo to combat my moods and hypervigilance and the two seem to be working well together.
I am due to go on a mega healthy diet after Christmas so I let u know how my weight goes.
Anyway just an up date about my medication.
