Mirtazapine: morning vs night dosing – experiences?

Hi everyone,

I’ve been taking mirtazapine at night (at bedtime). It helps with sleep, but during the day I still feel quite anxious, especially in the mornings and early hours.

My question is: 👉 Has anyone tried taking mirtazapine in the morning or splitting the dose?

I’m honestly a bit scared to move it to the morning because I know it can be very sedating, and I don’t want to end up extremely drowsy or falling asleep during the day, especially at work.

I’d really appreciate hearing real experiences: Does anyone take it in the morning and eventually adapt? Does the sedating effect wear off after a few days? I know everyone reacts differently, but reading others’ experiences would really help.

Thanks in advance 🙏
