You only take the Valium or klonopin twice per week? I know mirtazapine is great for anxiety. I took it for two months. Even with dosage adjustments it made me too lethargic.

I take the Mirtazapine 1.5 hrs. before bed. It helps me sleep 6-7 hrs. Doesn’t do much for depression. It’s sedating quailties are wonderful. But not to be taken full dose in the a.m. Never makes me tired the next day. Been on it 2 yrs. now. The benzos, quite frankly, scare me. I’m experimenting with two times a week....in a row. 5 days off.....sometime even two weeks. Hoping to not reach any tolerance.....or dependence. We’ll see how it goes.

I take 1 mg twice a day of Klonopin for anxiety and sometimes.5 midday if necessary. Had to get off anti depressants due to side effects and they didn’t work
