I'm not tapering really just getting used to a lower dose of mirtazapine. I just want to know if I'm close to it being over

@Catina im just looking to stay at fifteen. Im at the end of 8 weeks, 9 tomorrow. I was only on it two weeks before upping it and immediately tapering back down to 15 mg after a week and that fucked me up really bad. Just wishing it was over. It was wonderful the first two weeks I was on it
