No soul/dead

What were you taking before mirtazapine? And what does he think about all that? Does he agree that changing medication has caused that? Did he consider giving you back your old medication?
I really hate it when doctors don't listen to patients or don't take them seriously, or minimize side effects. This is really driving me mad...

Yes it's the meds that are causing the problem, but for me the root of the problem is that at least some psychiatrists don't know what they are doing and dont ask for informed consent. I think we are talking about very similar things. Even if a drug is dangerous, i dont mind much that it exists as long as I am told about the actual risks beforehand and I am given the right to refuse to take them.
But if psychiatrists want to claim that they make people take minimal risks they should acknowledge the risks linked to some medication and stop selling them.
When I looked into SSRIs I learned about post SSRI sexual dysfunction and read about many people having it as a result of their treatment. There are even scientific papers about it. But when I talked about that to my psychiatrist i was only met with a condescending amused smile, like there is only crap on the internet and I shouldn't be anxious...
