"i started taking mirtazapine almost a month ago and its been a wonder drug for me. needed something for crippling anxiety + panic attacks, depression, chronic insomnia, sleep paralysis,night terrors, self medication with alcohol just to sleep and quell anxiety. prescribed 15 mg at bed-time.  took 1/4 (3.75 mg) a night for 4 nights, then 1/2 (7.5 mgs) for two nights and then on to 15 mgs.



now i sleep (but can wake up if needed), zero anxiety, no increase in appetite.  i&#039;ve even lost a bit of weight do to no longer drinking alcohol - a small miracle in itself and my libido has returned.  i had a terrible reaction to prozac years ago - anorexia, self harm, mania, no libido, alcohol cravings, intrusive thoughts. so glad my doctor gave me mirt."
