I thought I was the only one having hot/cold sweats and anxiety going off Mirtazapine. I actually started re-taking it, but forgot how goofy it made me initially feel, and after 2 weeks off, took too high a dose the first night. Really knocked me out.
I got very anxious about a week after I completely stopped taking it, and the anxiety got better my first day back on. In my case, though, I think I had the anxiety before going on it, and had forgotten how much it helped till I tried to go off.
Anyway, I feel like I copped out by going back on it so soon, because I'll never know if the extreme anxiety; hot and cold spells were just temporary and would have abated if I stayed off for longer. I felt so rotten, though, I couldn't continue the experiment any longer.
