"so i&#039;m a long term user, 13 years. most of the reviews i&#039;m guessing are short term. well this is what you need to know before you start taking this, how it impacts you several years later.

in a word, negatively. my dose started off high (120) now 15. but i am now experiencing the side affects of what i call mirtazapine abuse.  i believe it has progressively slowed down the reproduction of serotonin and noradrenaline and caused numbness through my nervous system. i now feel little sensation in my body, struggle to maintain erection during sex as result but above all i find it hard to feel emotion and thus have passion for anything. i can&#039;t compose music well anymore without forcing myself. take this drug only on a short term basis. be safe."
