In reply to Remeron : For Panic/Anxiety Depression?, posted by jay on October 18, 2001, at 11:29:07
I was on mirtazapine for 6 months. It was very effective for anxiety. I stopped panicking and having breathing difficulties completely. The sedation was pleasant when I was trying to sleep, but irritating if I needed to go out in the evening. My appetite was increased for a few days (one night I ate so much I vomited), but returned to normal. Strangely, I put on 2 stone without eating excessively over the next couple of months. The drug did not help with depression, but I suspect that I am not suffering from clinical depression anyway. It did flatten my emotions considerably, which must be welcome for some, but not me. I would like to feel more emotional, not less.
Hope this is helpful
