A youtube psych who's said a lot of stuff I completely disagree with (just based on my own subjective experience admitedly) has done a tier list of the worst meds to w/d from.
He's put Mirtazapine as kind of middling, I can forsee extreme and prolonged insomnia for sure, but as it doesnt do much of anything else for me, I cant see it causing many other w/d symptoms.
But this is also the guy who thinks SSRIs are worse to w/d from than clonazepam etc.
And he has also done a "guide" about how to w/d from xanax, without even mentioning the most obvious first step - switch to diazepam first. for the longer duration, and meaning less / no need to dose several times a day.
It seems he only speaks from book knowledge and has no idea about the practicalities of going through these things.
That's probably a bit harsh, he's probably looked at some research. It's just some of the things he comes out with really annoy me.
He's probably / hopefully right about Mirtazapine though. It's an antihistimine but also a atypical tetracyclic antidepressant. Not too sure what that means is terms of w/d profile tbh.
He also uses brand names instead of the drug name, so at least for myself I have to translate many of the brand names, as obviously in the UK we use the drug name, not the brand.
