Thursday
I'm currently on Mirtazepine (30mg). Some of you may have guessed that I'm trying to work this out from my other posts but I'm trying to work out a way to get my point across at my next medication review..
I want to be able to control when I come off medication if ever, I'm on my third+ bout of depression/anxiety. I just feel that rather than being dictated to my doctors who don't have to live with the consequences of feeling bad and down, anxious or whatever.
I just take the view that if medication helps (and it's not like I take a high dose of anti psychotics or benso- diazepines. I take 30mg mirtzepine. If it allows me to function and have a good quality of life then so be it. I think the NICE gudelines recommend that professionals work with their patients to come up with a 'plan' but let's just say in past experience I've felt like I wasn't in control.
