Remeron (generic) or Prozac side effects?

Remeron (generic) or Prozac side effects?

Hello, my doctor put me on Remeron(generic) about a month and 1/2 ago to help with the withdrawl (withdrawal) symptoma of the Paxil that  I was getting off of.  The Remeron (15mg) did a great job at that.... kept my anxiety down and let me sleep but hasn't really helped with my obssesive racing thoughts/worry .

My doctor has now perscribed Prozac (worked wonders for me 15yrs ago)  I've now been on it for about 12 days and still on the Remeron. Two nights ago I began to tapper off of the Remeron.  My Doctor wants to keep me on the Remeron until I see here in a few weeks. I went down to 7.5 mg's from 15mg.  (The plan is to have me come off of the Remeron)  Well,within 24 hours of reducing my Remeron I began to have anxiety.  Do you believe that this is a case of Remeron withdrawls or was the Remeron "masking" the side effects that come along with my body adjusting to the Prozac?  I remember the first time that I went on Prozac I had the same anxiety feeling that I am experiencing now.
Thanks in advance to any insight somone might have.
