Insomnia
"I&#039;m in UK. I&#039;ve taken Mirtazapine for 3 nights &amp; so far it has had no effect on my insomnia. It has perhaps made it worse as 2 of those nights I couldn&#039;t lie still but was fidgety &amp; restless. I end up taking a temazepam, otherwise I literally lie wide awake all night.  But I can&#039;t do this indefinitely as docs at my practice just refuse to give scrips for temazepam &amp; other benzodiazepines, even though I have never abused these drugs. 
I don&#039;t want to lower the dose as main reason for taking Mirtazipine is my chronic anxiety, which I&#039;m still hoping this med will help. 
Apart from the restlessness at night there have so far been no side effects. Felt a bit spaced out yesterday but nothing serious. 
But wish could night get good nights sleep."
