Rebecca ~  if you would like them!!
This would seem scary to me too. I have experienced withdrawal from my anti-depressant and it is NOT fun.
I can see how you would be concerned that maybe this is all being handled by your medication and that without it things will go down hill. I have that fear too. At some point, you need to trust in yourself and your practitioners to take a med brake and see where you are at. You will never know how successful your treatment is if you don't try. 
The good thing is, it sounds like your practitioners are going to ween you slowly which will help keep you out of withdrawal, and it is good that they are open to re-starting you on the meds or increasing the dosage if the depression kicks back in.
I hope this offers some comfort. I think it is very normal to be scared about this. Hang in there, and know that we are all here for you!! 
Keep us posted if you want...and good luck!!
