I don't feel like im benefiting from my medication, I seem to be stressing out over nothing, my doctor has also prescribed mirtazapine to take of a night as I have terrible sleeping patterns, (I suppose I need to speak with my doctor) but all she seems to say is we'll increase your dosage) thankyou for your reply

You might, the NIH lists the withdrawal effects as possible including nausea, dizziness, headache, rebound depression, and anxiety.

Why are you stopping it?
