Are you working with a psychiatrist to help you manage your medications? Primary doctors have limited time and experience with mental health treatment and medications.

I tried mirtazapine but had to stop because it made me so hungry I wanted to eat everything around me. I stopped after one day.

I hope you are working with a psychiatrist re your medications and getting some therapy. They really go hand in hand. Hope you feel better soon.

Yes. These meds were prescribed by my psychiatrist. I am trying to go to another one just for a second opinion.
In my case, Mirtazapine did not make me hungrier.
