Please do not share stories about how you’ve gained weight, as I already know most people do. Thanks
Long story short, I was on Mirtazapine from January to May. It worked wonderfully for my anxiety. My only complaints were fatigue and weight gain. I have felt miserable since stopping it. I am willing to put up with tiredness, but don’t want to gain the weight that I’ve since lost back or more.
When I was tapering off, I was dieting and exercising and did start to lose weight even when I was still on it. And I was eating terribly when I was on it in the winter, obviously contributing to the gains.
What I want to know is has anyone been successful in managing their weight or losing weight while on Mirtazapine? I have very good willpower, but I have read Mirtazapine can cause you to gain weight despite what you eat, so that’s my concern. However, like I said, when I was dieting and exercising I was losing weight. I just want to hear some experiences or reassurance to make me feel more secure before starting the medicine up again.
