[Cr...] Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Its hard to tell with ADs. Some people become dependent after a couple weeks while others can stop cold turkey after more than a year with little problems. You basically were only on it 4 weeks straight? That could be enough time for a minor withdrawal that may be short-lived. Your symptoms could also be worse now because the mirt was supressing your anxiety some. Or you may have just entered a wave recently. Its hard to pinpoint. You plan on staying off of mirt regardless of what you are currently facing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Best ever at half dose for sleeping and if you are anyway underweight with depression MIRT will enable you to eat yourself through the household 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Hu...] Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 (edited) Some ppl say it's "just a strong anti-histamine", wrong! It definitely is a medication you should taper because the withdrawal is real. I just took 0.1mg of the pill every other day. Edited June 17 by [Hu...] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[So...] Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Mirt WD could 100% be the reason & probably is... I was "only" on it for 2 months before I had a vicious time trying to get off... so no it's totally expected, maybe reinstate a smaller dose & taper off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
