acupuncture with meds or when trying to stop meds?

I have been considering acupuncture as I jave heard that it can really help with anxiety.

However, I am currently usng klonopin every day and have just started an SSRI. I'll be weaned off of the klonopin once the ssri kicks in and will them only use it as needed.

Would it be useful to try acupuncture in conjunction with my medications, or to wait and try it once I am trying to get off of the medications? I would like to use natural methods, but I am not sure if they are a waste of time if emdication s already working. So, would acupuncture be a good idea to try once I get off of meds and am looking to remian panic-free? Or can it help me now too?

I have panic disorder, GAD, and OCD and have finally turned to medications after 5 months of not being able to control my panic and watching it get worse and worse.
