hiya i have been on them for at least 1.5 yrs and i am aware that they have a dependent thing to them partly becaause they are part of the benzodiazepam group. if your doc is bringing you off them it will be done in a controlled manner i wuld presume so all the side effects will be carefully monitored. it works slightly for me and anything that has an effect on my seizures is worth taking. ill live with the withdrawal effects if/when it needs to come. i would speak to ur doc and try not o worry too much., x
