Hello. I am currently on 15mg of mirtazapine and am desperate to come off it. I have only been on it for a few weeks. It was prescribed for depression and insomnia. Unfortunately I have a history of eating disorder so the weight gain fear is overriding any benefit I get from the medication. I am wondering if I might do well on amitryptaline as it can help sleep and perhaps isn’t associated with as much weight gain as mirtazapine. Has anyone successfully switched from one to the other? If so did you taper or do a direct switch? Thanks very much.
