If you do decide to stop, then save your remaining pills and even get the refills (before they expire). That way you will have them on hand if you feel like you need/want to start again.
It's much easier to have a good supply than to be stuck with nothing and have to worry about getting an appointment just to get them again... getting motivated to make an appointment that you'll have to wait a while for in order to get meds can be tough when you're in a bad place and if you've got a good supply on hand you always have the option to get started today with almost no effort. A very good option to have.
Also google your meds for withdrawal / "rebound" effects (my psych told me that's not withdrawal that's a "rebound effect" after not warning me about it in any way). Sometimes not weaning can have bad consequences, sometimes not.
Not advising you to stop obviously but that's my advice if you do decide to.
