It has to be decided by a psychiatrist after consult either in person or online. Don't decide on yourself. Best is to consult back the prescribing psychiatrist. Good luck

Hi. So the course depends on the history of symptoms. But if you feel 80% better than you can consult your psychiatrist to slowly decrease the mg of medication and bring you to one or two medication for no relapse or withdrawals in long term and eventually that will be stopped too.
Next Steps
Consult your psychiatrist or any psychiatrist.

If you are taking for first time for anxiety, the course should be for 6-9 months though you are symptom free because they are more chances of relapse if course is not completed.
