IMO, its best to always gradually come off of any med, even those that really don't cause "dependence".

 

Most folks find mirtazipine very easy to discontinue.  I took 30mgs/day for 3 years, and just did  a2 week taper (15mg for a week, 7.5mg for a week) and had absolutely no difficulties.  I probably could have just CT'd it, but but a fast taper just seemed like a betterr idea.

I tried cutting 1/4 of 15 mg of Remeron but found that my anxiety escalated in the day to the point I was miserable but I'm still tapering 9 mg Valium so probably will wait until I'm finished with that. I was still sleeping but my anxiety spiked and for some reason had bad headaches too. If your switching to Paxil though I imagine just cutting the 7.5 in half and maybe just then quit. It wasn't a nightmare with the Remeron just very noticeable so I thought I may as well just leave it alone for now. Don't need any more problems right now. B
