It is not advisable to discontinue or change medication in any way without the recommendation of the treating psychiatrist. Typically doses are adjusted depending on the symptomatic improvement, and always on the advice of the Psychiatrist who is in charge of the patient. Don't be in a hurry to discontinue treatment, risk of relapse is very significant.

You seem to be on multiple antidepressants, which would have led to this stage due to resistant symptoms, poor symptom control, etc. The medications do have the propensity to cause weight gain, so you need to discuss with your treating psychiatrist on how to manage the same. Good luck.

Along with medicines, talk therapy is required.
Only medicines will not solve depression. We need to identify the root cause of depression and solve it.
I recommend doing exercises and yoga daily.
Find good friends to share your feelings
keep your self engaged in studies/work/ any hobbies
good luck.

Mirtazapine (nassa not ssri) is far better in inducing sleep compared to venlafaxine. Venlafaxine is not superior to mirtazapine in treating adhd, ocd and anxiety. A ssri (e.g. Paroxetine, slight helpful in sleep induction too) would be a good choice if you want to shift from mirtazapine.

You be tried with medicines to augment and remit depressive symptoms, consult with your psychiatrist. Also mood elevators can be tried apart from antidepressants. Your 20 years of symptom and medication history needs to be known, before suggesting something. All the best.
