Starting Mirtazapine handhold

[rubyslipperss]

Hi I've had a pretty bad year and this last month has been particularly bad - I developed tinnitus and this triggered insomnia which sent me into a spiral . My GP has given me mirtazapine 15 mg and zopiclone and told me take them together but wouldn't that knock me out too much ?

Also aside of the weight gain ( I'll chose sleep over weight gain atm ) though this does worry me, did people find it difficult to come off ?
Could do with some positive stories if possible as I hate taking new things .

@rubyslipperss thanks for replying. I actually increased to 15 about 18 days ago but I’ve had continue anxiety this last few days and I saw my gp today who said to go up to 30 but I’m reluctant because I am super sensitive to meds and couldn’t manage more anxiety than I currently have. I was wondering if there might be a chance the 15mg hadn’t had enough time to work yet .
