Started on sertaline for depression and anxiety, felt after 6months they stopped working and made anxiety worse. Dr put me on to Mirtazapiene 30mg and I had a horrible experience. It made me a horrible person, moody and irritable went back to see my DR he's changed my medication to fluxoitene. Day 2 of new meds and I feel extremely low. Has anyone else experienced the same side effects? I feel like it's 2 steps forward and 6 steps back!!
Hallo,
Das ist genau meine Erfahrung. Das Sertralin hat mich sehr nervös gemacht, gib dem Fluoxetin ein paar Wochen.
Ich nehme es jetzt seit etwa 12 Monaten ein und fühle mich ruhiger.

Hallo Rebecca, ich bin Diane. Ich weiß, dass es manchmal Zeit braucht, bis ein Antidepressivum wirkt, und in meinem Fall musste ich mehrere ausprobieren, bevor ich das Richtige fand. Ich nehme Lexapro und es hilft mir wirklich bei meiner Depression und Angst. Das erste, das ich genommen habe, war Prozac und es wirkte sofort gut, aber nach Jahren erlebte ich den sogenannten Prozac-Poop-Out, deshalb habe ich gewechselt. Antidepressiva haben mir ein neues Blatt im Leben gegeben, aber ich musste geduldig sein. Viel Glück. Diane
Hi Rebecca, I've had a similar experience, started with sertaline and have now changed to mirtazapiene. Sertaline did nothing for my depression, the mirtazapiene makes me sleep great but I've also noticed I'm getting very moody and irritable, today was particularly bad, everyone annoyed me. I will keep going for another 2 weeks but if there isn't an improvement by then I'll have to switch to something else because people won't survive around me if I get much worse.
Hello Mike.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has had this experience. Glad your feeling calmer!
Take care
Hello Diane,
I'm glad you've found one that works for you, these things are just trial and error. Take care!
Hello Paul
I found sertaline made my anxiety worse and eventually I hit a wall and felt like they weren't helping at all that's when my Dr started me on mirtazapiene I lasted 8 weeks and it got too much, my hair was thinning/falling out, I ate excessively, I was so moody and it began to effect the people around me. I did get a good sleep on them though. If you don't feel mirtazapiene is helping I'd go back and see your Dr. Good luck and Take care
