Been taking mirtazapine for 1 week now @ 15 mg and I've noticed that I have been more depressed, to the point where I can't even get up and move around, is this normal? Can this drug make you feel worse before better? Anyone with that kind of experience? Also I find it makes me drowsy when I take it but does'nt actually put me to sleep right away.
