How do Mirtazapine WD symptoms start to resolve?
Hello,
Thanks straight up to Cosmic for your Life Lessons. I’ve been reading and re reading them and Catina’s 18 ways to soothe à nervous system for reassurance. Kind people.
I got off Mirtazapine after 31 days - twenty one at 15, six at 7.5, four at 3.75. My dr said i could go cold turkey if I want, there’d be no WD problems after only three weeks -WRONG!!!! I did have a massive activation reaction to sertraline the prior three weeks, which is why she put me on Mirtazapine in the first place, maybe that mix of drugs in quick succession has caused the horrible WD symptoms I’ve been having.
Anyway, I am now into my fourth week since the final dose of Mirtazepine and am wondering for those who have gotten off it, how did it start to resolve? Did the panic and other symptoms start to shrink into discrete episodes instead of being around the whole time, for example? I am having new symptoms now ( waking up trembling ) and much as I know recovery is non linear, it’s really frustrating to think that maybe I still have a long way to go. I’m being encouraged to look for what’s going right, not wrong, but it’s a challenge.
Thank you.
