Mitazepine: aka Remeron (mirtazapine). Minimal if any withdrawal symptoms except recurrence of symptoms of anxiety. Ift is available in 7.5 mg, but usually 15 mg is minimum dose and safe to go off of without withdraal symptoms. If you discontinued it on your own I would suggest consultation with prescribing doc

Can't Predict: You may not get any withdrawal symptoms or there could be the return of the depression or other symptoms that you previously had.
