Hi, I'm Eysha

November 12, 2026

I’ve been on Mirtazapin for about 1 year & 10 months started with 7.5mg for 1 months and then upped to 15mg. About 2 months ago I started tapering from 15->7.5mg. 2 weeks ago I stopped completely. My withdrawal started with being emotional and then I started to feel dizzy and nauseous and a bit of anxiety. I’m not sure if it will ever stop. My Psychiatrist is telling me it’s not from withdrawal but rather my anxiety returning.
