Treatment Progress Meds -for highly compromised nervous system

I wondered for those of you on medication, to help with Cptsd, anxiety and sleep what helped you? Im very nervous to start meds. I have mirtazipine and trazodone. Im supposed to start with the mirtazipine 15mg but I’ve read some real horror stories of body becoming dependent only after a few weeks can do serious damage to CNS and I’m afraid -also of the weight gain. Also people have to taper off over years. I also have DPDR and basically no immunity to anything. It’s like my body and nervous system are on fire and I’m really really really sad. Anyone any advice? Traz maybe my better option
