Mirtazapine comments!

[Valium]

I hated it, couldnt function and gave me lots of anxiety

TYPICAL PSYCHIATRIST RESPONSE TO THIS WOULD BE

"anxiety? but Remeron doesn't really cause anxiety....I think the anxiety must be coming from elsewhere"

"but from where? before this I was fine, the more i took, the more anxious I got ...wouldn't it be more logical to..aa"

"yes yes I understand, shhh, calm down, it's ok. The truth is, Remeron simply CAN'T cause anxiety. Why...that's like saying that you took a ..i dont know...a valium and then became anxious. you know what I mean?"

"umm...ok..but before i had no anxiety and after taking it i got anxiety so what was it that could have been the cause, do you think, most likely, most REASONABLY, hypothetically holding to the tall pillars that be the tenets of the scientific method of observation and association?"

"heh heh, you are so passionate about this, but don't worry. you're just wrong, and it's OK to be wrong. You're not a psychiatrist after all. Remeron is right and you are thus wrong. Now it's beyond time, so I'll see you next month, here's your pack of scripts...this pack is the phenothiazines, this one is the bromides, here's lithium, and here's 4 white valiums to get you through the month, but this is the LAST time I am giving you that POISON. And I want you to raise that Remeron up to 450mg - I will write, yes, i will write to Organon so that your insurance pays. And you will see then how wrong you were. OK? ok well see you next week

"ok buh bye. is that your car over there? its so amazingly beautiful..wow.

well ok bye now.

and im not even exaggerating. i mean we've all been treated like this by the psychs...like were not even above unicellular intellectual capacity. it's soooo sad to see a psychiatrist, beautiful woman, on the upper west side right near the park, all glitz and glam and scandinavian tall with full breasts, smoking in the office, throwinig out racist jokes in Russian..and then giving me Remeron. When I said to her, I took this before, it was not helpful in the least, she replied "no no, that's how some spick or nigger psychiatrist handled it.. leave it to me. this stuff works. what you don't believe me? and i reply "no, i believe that you don't believe that you actually in the privacy of your own being which itself is created by you according to all the principles of social metaphysics can possible REALLY believe the crap youre saying right now? Columbia med with honors and laurels....

- this really happens -

You! how dare you stand in the waiting room like this frightening the patients? I can arrest you,"

i reply..in translation "what about all of the people sitting in this room at whom i point at right now, whom you monitor from your little camera today and then turn the monitor to me and tell me that he always comes to you asking for you to find him a Russian man because he really loves them (at this point same guy looks like he's expecting someone to run out of a wall and exclaim YOURE ON HIDDEN CAMERA.

long story less long....Dr. G gave me Remeron and it escalated in probation of her license, not to mention the joint suit filed by ALL of her patients with me at the forefront.




NOW I ASK.

WHY?


WHO IS THE GUILTY ONE?

REMERON!

and the people shouted REEEMERON while Barrabas turned white

[paranoid android]

I never found remeron to cause anxiety and i would rate it pretty low on the scale of anti-depressants that make me act wacky. I went nuts on effexor as in batshit crazy manic but remeron didnt do that. Id did pull me out of a funk i was in and i was on it for awile along with risperidone to help my bipolar while i was waiting for the lamictal to kick in.

Since i didnt get along with risperidone i was switched to seroquel and dropped the remeron since the seroquel was working ok. The 2 together made me eat like crazy. Now im on wellbutrin as my anti-depressant (this one is way overlooked in my opinion) and id have to say that it works the best out of the lot for my type of depression.

 

[min0taur]

I've been on this drug for a long time. For me, anything over 15 mg gives me crazy RLS. Anything under 30 mg doesn't work very well as an AD. All doseages make me tired. All doseages make me eat.

The worst part of the drug is the sedation and the fact that its so so very hard to wake up in the morning. I wouldn't take it if I wasn't taking methylphenidate on top of it, which helps me make the transformation from zombie to human.

Quality post!
*gives a round of applause*

 

[Cone]

Loved it when I took it

Only worked well for a few months though

Side effects didnt really bother me for the relief it gave.

I did get MAD restless legs though.

Sometimes I would sleep for 11 hours despite not being active at all that day. Best sleep of my life, though. You would start dreaming as you were falling asleep, and some nights I felt like I hadn't fallen asleep at all, instead I had spent the entire night in a dream state realm. I remembered every part of my dreams the next day and I felt great.

 

[The_Chef]

In my brief experience it was sedating but didn't lead to a particularly good night's sleep. It left me feeling very groggy, like after a night of moderate to heavy drinking minus other hangover effects. It also increased my appetite like a motherfucker.

 

[marione]

I'm on 30Mg and it's helping a lot to fight my depression but didn't had any psychedelic effect yet and no weight gain fortunately.
Should I try 60Mg during the day instead before sleep time to get stoned ?

 

[elusive_badger]

I have been messing around with mirtazapine and modafinil recently and other than the huge urge to eat really unhealthy foods and the slight 'hangover' the next day it is pretty good. Really helps me to sleep after a day on the modafinil. I also take 40mg citalopram daily.

I haven't given it a proper chance as an anti-depressant but I have had a few days now when I have been euphoric the following day. Finding real pleasure in things I normally wouldn't notice,

This might be partly down to the modafinil but if you can have feelings like I have just once it would be worth taking. heartily recommended (aside from the getting fat part).

 

[LSD Lover]

I take mirtazipine every night before bed. I started it two years ago, and I can say that it is so so. On one hand, it helps with sleep very well. I am now taking the 45 mg tablets. I have taken it during the day before, and it made me feel very tired, lethargic, and yea I guess "stoned". I was able to function at work, and forgot that I had taken it until I noticed myself being very drowsy. It is in no way psychedelic, hardly recreational, but effective in treating some forms of depression because it induces sleep, increases appetite etc. I love the way it allows me to sleep through the night. I will note that my girlfriend says that when I'm sleeping my muscles are very tense, and I lift my arms and legs for hours at a time. I am also prescribed an anti-anxiety drug called Xanax and I use that for sleep (1 mg) in combination with the mirtazipine, so I can't say for sure which substance may cause that. My muscles are sore sometimes during the day as a result of this.

 

[MissZee]

I take 45mg every night about an hour before I go to bed have been for nearly 4 months now, and I love it!! I can go into a deep sleep for hours, I can't stop eating (And I mean literally, I put on nearly 2 stone in just over a week, my stomach just never seems to get full), and I don't know about anybody else, but it really increases my sex drive. Honestly within half an hour of gubbing my pills, I get SO horny.

I feel it has helped with my depression, I wake up in the morning and just want to move, I feel so motivated. However it hasn't helped much with my anxiety or anger issues.

 

[bighooter]

mirtazapine has helped my depression a little bit but it has sky rocketed my anxiety its time to see the doc for a change I think.

It makes me very sleepy and it makes me very hungry but I have actually lost weight since being on it but I put this down to losing my job and therefore not having as much money to buy food.

 

[InlandTaipan]

I took this for about a year and it was nothing short of worthless as an antidepressant, not to mention the caloric restriction that the med requires if you don't want approach morbid obesity. Take any of the assortment of SSRI's, that as known to be as effective as a placebo, before bringing up this drug. It will take your mind of intrusive thoughts and nasty feelings replacing them with constant daydreams of cookies, ice cream, chocolate etc.
