Change in Medication

So a week yesterday I went in to see my doctor, my prescriptions had run out.  We have decided to stop the mirtazipine as the weight gain was worrisome.  And I am now taking Trazadone 50mg before bed each day.  The first few days of transition were a bit rough.  I was having bizarre dreams, a reduced need for sleep, and extremely tired during the day.  My anxiety started to ramp up but today my symptoms have started to subside.  Thankfully!  Fingers crossed that no side effects occur and life can continue as best as it can when you have a mood disorder.
Aug. 1st: my dosage has settled out to 2 pills every day at bedtime.  Feeling more optimistic, sleeping!, no more anxiety!
