I've recently (2 months ago) been taken off mirtazapine and put on ecitalopram.

AND FEEL FANTASTIC

Has anyone else felt sooooooooooooooo much better on this?

I am currently meant to be on escitalopram but am not taking it anymore. Did not make any difference for me.

But then again neither did any other ADs- have been on mirtazapine to but that made me crazy!

So glad its working for you though, what dosage are u on?

hi i took escitalopram for ABOUT 18 months with pnd after dd was born, it made me quite numb which basically allowed me to hide my symptoms from anyone else and whilst i didnt feel like screaming and crying all the time anymore, i didnt feel happy either so yes it helped but not cured

hmmmmmm sorry am going on a bit

really glad it is he;lping you though, brillaint news that you are feeling better
