Has anyone been put on tricyclic antidepressants for POTS? Experiences?

Hey, I tried SSRIs for depression and anxiety but they made my anxiety unbearable. I’m now on mirtazapine 30 mg and I like it so far. It’s an SNRI if I’m not mistaken. I’m not familiar with the medication you’re on but when I first started this one I was SO groggy throughout the day. I’m talking like couldn’t keep my eyes open. It eventually went away so I think my body just had to adjust. I’d give your medication some time to see if the side effect evens out and if not talk to your doctor. You could just need to adjust your dose in the future or something. I feel for you because I know how annoying the grogginess can be. Good luck!
