I've been on Mirtazapine for a few years now. Started at 15, went up to 30 and then onto 45, some 18 months approx, where I stayed until March of this year. I dropped down to 30 and have been there for the last six months. And it was a sudden drop no tapering. As a result, I experienced a few nights of insomnia and some recurrent anxiety a few weeks in. Nothing to major but enough to make me very wary of jumping that big a drop in the future.
I want to change over to Sertraline. And my GP has indicated that this is possible. However, I wanted to reach out to see if anyone else had done this and to learn of any caveats.
The reason for wanting to change is to do with the constant hunger and threat of weight gain that has been hanging over me since I started the Mirts and the daytime grogginess.
Anyone?
