Hi,
I've been on Mirtazapine for the last year (45mg for the last 6 months). I had a falling out with my Psychiatrist and so haven't seen her since January. I recently decided I didn't want to be taking Mirtazapine any more and because I didn't want to see my psychiatrist I just stopped taking it. I now realise how irresponsible this was.
Luckily for me I have been off it for a month and the only withdrawal effect has been insomnia. I can frequently get more than 6 hours sleep but I'm rarely asleep before 3am (it's 5am as I type this). I am a student and at the moment it's not too big an issue but when I start having lectures again in October it will become a major inconvenience. Will I be sleeping better by then or do I need to go back on the drugs?
