Hi Philippa,
No, you're not killing yourself, they are, as has been previously mentioned in these posts,of very low toxicity. The problem is, in your case I believe, that you've been on them for a very long time. Two options are available in my view. Either you start a very very careful and gradual reduction over the next few years, adding on an anti-anxiety type A.D. almost imediatly. Or you simply continue, accepting that there will be good days and bad days,like there is with everyone, med users or not, and even considering augmenting the dose slightly, or adding on( on the bad days) small doses of natural things that are known to enhance benzo sedative actions, like Valeriana, Kava, and heck, why not a small glass of red wine.( occasionaly) And while I'm at it, don't argue with the hubbie, remember the smart one gives in first!And finally, I'd like to express my appreciation of your continued support to the many troubled souls that post their worries on this site.
Very best wishes
Vale
