For anxiety patients, the usual pattern is rapid development of tolerance to the side effects (drowsiness etc.), but not the anxiolytic effects, as long as you're at a dose that's adequate for you. As others have pointed out, many people take the same dose of a given benzo for long periods of time with great success.
My pdoc has many patients who have used the same dosages of Klonopin for anxiety for years, and never seem to require any dosage adjustment. The same dose has worked for me for two years, so I'll see how it goes.
