Insomnia
"I&#039;ve been prescribed mirtazapine for the last 12 months now. It certainly helps me sleep and I can sleep for 12 hours easily.. Only criticism I have is the grogginess and drowsiness the next morning. That lasts for around an hour. For some reason I crave junk food whilst I&#039;m taking it. So I can see why people can gain weight. I gained a stone, but being disciplined and exercising has changed that. I can&#039;t say I feel any different taking it re depression, however it is very effective for insomnia."
