Dear lybrate user...Certain depression medication like mirtazapine may cause excess sedation like in your case.

Hey lybrate-user,
I understand that this is a tough time for your family. While medications can be helpful, it may be very important for your father to seek emotional support and talk through his grief and issue with siblings with a therapist. Your therapist would help you to bring the thoughts and emotions triggering the depression, to your awareness and help you process them in a safe environment.
