"I started on this drug, Remeron, at 15 mg, found that it worked for two weeks, then the anxiety came back, so I upped it to 30, and guess what, the same thing happened, so I’m trying 37.5. I hope these meds begin to work and stay that way."

"I tried Mirtazapine after struggling with depression and more recently (and prominently) anxiety. I've been on it for roughly 1 year. I really can't tell if it's done anything major. I had a few brief moments of contentment, which made me think maybe it was working. But most of the time I don't notice a difference. It has helped me sleep, but only when anxiety/depression isn't hitting super hard."

"This drug really helps with anxiety, but not so much with depression. I want to go off it because I am now binge eating, a problem I never had before. If you suffer from severe anxiety, it may be worth a try. Otherwise, stay away."

"Within 15 mins of taking it (at night) without fail, I became extremely hungry. Now, after three months of taking it, I can recognize it. I've gained weight because this is also used as an appetite stimulant. I don't eat now after I take it."

"Don’t touch this stuff, it is the worst antidepressant I’ve ever come across, unless being a permanent zombie (fat too) is your thing."

"Ok, so I took this last night to sleep at the dose of 15 mg. It's horrible. The next day, I'm sleeping all day, zero energy, feels extremely sedated and zombie-like. I will never take it again."

"The only thing that I would tell is that it is a very powerful drug that can even change your life for good or bad, it's close to the effect of MDMA and LSD combined."

"This medicine completely wipes me out. All it does is make me sleep. I can sleep over 24 hours straight when I take this. Does nothing for depression because it makes me sleepy and can’t do anything anyway when you’re sleepy."
