I did a very slow taper of 1mg of Klonopin over a 10 month period last year. It was hell, but I made it to the end. The worst part was the insomnia, and the psychiatrist who tapered me off would not give me anything for that. He discharged me at the end of the taper because I was turning 65 and their practice did not treat Seniors. I felt totally kicked to the curb. My primary care dr. prescribed Remeron, which I took for 4 months and it did not help. I tried over the counter, CBT-I, and found some relief with CBD/THC gummies. I finally got a referral to a sleep medicine specialists, who was the only one that confirmed that it was not acceptable to have this level of insomnia and prescribed Lunesta. She was also willing to re-prescribe Klonopin but I declined because it was so hellish to get off it. I have to say the Klonopin worked better for a solid night's sleep, but I also had some stupid falls, which I no longer have. I feel that for me, Lunesta is the better choice overall.
