I think you'll potentially do more harm to yourself by doodling with other meds. Benzos are safe and you know what? I'll bet you could withdraw from 0.5 mg Klonopin in 2 weeks with no withdrawal, so how really "dependent" are you? Some people couldn't withdraw from coffee in two weeks. I know what you mean by feeling dependent on the med, but it is "emotive" thinking (as the CBT guys like to call it)-doing what we want to rather than what makes sense. It's an old story, but if the meds seem to be working out, leave them alone. Best of luck!
