If you are having no luck getting off of benzodiazepines, you can find a few studies that found Trileptal (oxcarbazepine) effective to mitigate benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome. Some people report having luck using Depakote (valproate).

I think that I might just hold on at 2mg Klonopin tho. Of the benzos I've tried (most of them, short and long term) Klonopin just kicks A** for SA! Just that i personally know 2 fellow SA suffers who both went on to Klonopin and it changed them completely, only to need an anti depressant to enable them to carry on with the Klonopin! Such is life...
