does anyone else take this mirtazapine,i have been on it for a week and i am not sleeping even thouh it's supposed to make you sleepier and accordingly safer for manic people,but i feel like i have the monthly pain,boobs and saddle you know the drill but i don't have my period so i don't get it,it's not even a side effect,major soreness like my milk has just come through after having a baby!!!i am dizzy all the time i went to bed at 6:30 this morning for 2 hours it's so stupid,can't even stay asleep now.if they are going to feed us these little pills you'd think they would know what to expect,,so sick of this i think i will take myself off it...i am going to meditate,my only sleep substitute,

mirtazopine definately doesnt sound like it is working for you or doing you any favours........you should go back and tell them what you have told us,im sure that they will take you off of them and try something else to help you sleep.......we are treated like guinea pigs at times with all these different meds and as you know it is trial and error finding one that actually does what we wanted it to do.
a complete change of subject......how is your brother doing since being diagnosed?

doesn't sound good, dragonfly. I would contact Dr. and let them know what is going on. *Hopefully* they can give you something else.

dragonfly, i took this drug for a short time a long while back. it's called remeron here in the states. i was in the hospital when they started giving it to me and i started walking like i was tipping over and had to hold the walls to walk right. and my gosh i think i gained 20 in 1 week. my therapist who was seeing me everyday even said it looked like i was getting larger and larger every day. and i felt giddy and sea sick. plus i was reading on the possible side effect and one of them is mania!
hope you go back and have them rethink it. and if you decide to keep taking it and feel the same way. i'd quit it.
good luck! and hope you get some sleep

well i have nearly finished a whole box of this shit now and i don't really feel that it does much expect a tiny bit of sleepyness after i take it but also i think i feel the mania waiting like i am about to lose control,or a bomb is going to drop,i am not quite here,my brother has been so so he doesn't like his meds,he keeps in touch sometimes but i think he just prefers to hide and drink and olay music,but i don't think it will last long and he will crash again.haven't heard from him in a while.i have no transport now so i can't get to the doc,i'm going to ring her tomorrow,i just get so angry and psycho in the afternoon and i am sure that it has to do with this stuff because thats when i take it and once i take it i feel calmer and sometimes i sleep but usually for just a moment and then i am up all night,i am starting to believe these drugs are all just bullshit they just want to control us because we don't fit into society and we have radical ideas and have no control over our energy,we aren't drone in the hive working for the collective so they are trying to slowly kill us with their poisons..i want a new pet too nicky i search for one everyday,i think we do it to prevent our souls from the devouring monster of mankind,,animals are wiser than we know,they are the answer.
