[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for your query. There is no strict time duration for continuing antianxiety / anti-depressant medication. This depends on a number of factors like nature and severity of the symptoms, response to treatment, present level of functioning, etc. Since you have been on medication for the past 5 years and that you are symptom-free and doing well now, a gradual reduction in medication can be tried. However, it is best that this is done under the supervision of your doctor. So, I would suggest that you discuss this with your doctor so that the further course of action can be decided. Wish you all the best.
