I assume you took either 2 or 3 doses a day?

At that level, you will probably be fine stopping.  If you quit cold turkey, you might have a few symtoms but likely being afraid  (anxiety) to stop might be worse than the actual symptoms of stopping.
If you do happen to experience withdrawals, they would likely be mild. Maybe like having a bit of the FLU...

In a month it is long enough to have dependency, but at that level a lot of it is mental.

I don't think they're actual withdrawals, you haven't really been taking enough for that.  But your body does notice when you stop putting certain substances in it.  By day 3 you'll be fine, what you're feeling now will be long gone!!
