Hi , I was on mirtaipine for a few months but seemed to make my anixity worse, I'm just starting tmrw on sertraline and hoping this will be better, I have suffered up an down for years so proberly just a bad day for you, what symtons do u have with ur anixity x

Hey jojo, no experience with sert but I've been a he'll of roller coaster on mirtazapine. Docs have gave me some sert to start but I refuse after the he'll I've been through the past 6 months or so.

Anyway regrading pmt. I notice when I ain't as active or do much exercise as well eat poor. My pmt the following month goes off the scale

.It can be anything upto 10 days before am due.I feel a differnt person and my anxitey goes noticeable high. I get bad dizzyness qnd feel light headed and have to go easy and also keep my food levels up. Once my time of month comes it eases. It does suck. My docs tried me on a pill but I felt more dizzy and all fatigue. So I decided to try exercise gently and try eat a more fruit and veg. Doc suggested evening primrose oil that I might try. I think it's all just part of being a women ha. I hope yours settles down for you. Just try to tell your self it's just pmt it will pass. Thsts what I do ha. Head up

Sarah I'm the same, I've just posted on the mirtazapine groUp.

Ive been on mirtazapine jusr over a year but I feel the worst I've ever felt. It's doing nothing but make me sleep, tired eat crap motivation, head aches brain zaps adrenaline rushes weird, muscle spasms, songs playing over qnd over in my head. Plus constant anxitey. It's got me bed bound and so fed UP. One doc gave me sertilaine to try instead but I can't seem to get off these mirtazapine so am scared to try anything else esp with mirtazapine is me system. One doc said I don't need tabelts and just wait for cbt.. Honest no one seems to belive me when I say it's there tabelt side effects. Anyway how have u been told to taper on to sert from mirtazapine?

Hope your well.. Thanks shez
