Hi. I understand your concern. I think that the potential for side effects for anti depressants is common. It's more likely to happen if you suddenly stop cold turkey.
Raise your concerns with your doc. There may be an alternate med that's non habit forming. I'm on Paxil and I don't think it's habit forming but can have nasty withdrawal effects. Mind you I'm on the paxil for non ibs reasons (ocd). Talk to your Doc. That's what they're there for. Take care and I hope you feel better.
BTW - a short term low dose doesn't sound too risky.
