Mirtazapine acceptance
OMG someone help me. Started taking my Mirtazapine 4 days ago and I feel so rough. Banging headache and my eyes feel like I've been crying for a week even though I haven't shed a tear. My body is fine but it seems to take my head ages to catch up with each movement - feels more like withdrawal than acceptance ugh.

Normal side effects to begin with I'm afraid http://patient.info/medicine/mirtaza...-zispin-soltab but these should pass. Just look after yourself and try to bear through. But, as ever, if it becomes unbearable, please talk to your dr

I've never felt this bad on anything before. I know I'll have to accept but my poor hubby is going to suffer.

Once you get past this, I found it very effective, if that helps?
-
Side effects should start clearing up after a week or two
-
Just wanted to offer some support..... It will pass..
-
Thanks for the info. I can persevere for a few weeks.
-
If it becomes too much after a couple of weeks go back and see your GP lovely...

I have been taking mirtazapine for about seven years. The drowsiness will improve and you should start to feel the benefits of the drug within four to six weeks. It does have a longer time to feel its effects. It has been a 'cleaner' drug as once it is established there are fewer side effects. It works well with the lithium that I take. I found problems when with withdrawing so I have preferred to stay on it for the time being. Best of luck

Thanks ElizabethJane. I feel slightly better today but have noticed my old bones are feeling worse, I know this is a side affect of the drug and hope this will ease too?
