I similarly have that fear hence why I take 3 days a week in a row off and twice now I've taken 3 week+ breaks when I know that I can. Also there's a whole rabbit hole of supplements that can help supposedly and I've found some to be useful but the biggest thing is just intense cardiovascular exercise (and specifically cardio versus resistance training). That said yes a year on I take a longer term break and I feel exactly like I used to pre medication by day 5 so not worried at this point. Most of the long term dependence issue I've seen from folks is many multi year users 5+ so doing what I can to avoid that situation. Keep dose as low as possible, take holidays, and long term I'm working to use it less and less so its infrequent or only during stressful work / life times in the future.
