I am writing for my wife. Her Doctor took her off 15 MG Mirtazapine and now she gets an upset stomach and throws up. It has happened 5 times now and one time twice in one day.

I suffer from social anxiety-fear of public speaking especially to large groups. The anxiety and panic can be overwhelming! Xanax really works getting me thru it. So grateful to have & use only when needed.
