I totally agree with you, I remember you saying this to me a while back and it really hit home. I have been trying to taper my dose for some time now and it’s going slow but steady, I’m definitely not confident yet that I have it under control but I do feel better than before. I haven’t looked for anyone else yet but I’m still doing the work on my own for now. Hopefully I’ll get lucky with the new doctor and my dose will be lower so perhaps we can work something out, if this option doesn’t come up then I’ll try to find someone who will help me. I sincerely hope that I will be successful in doing this, I might not even like the new doctor but finding a doctor here is next to impossible, over one million people in this city haven’t got a doctor and they are using the hospital to get help.

I'm in the exact same boat and thanks for the heads up. Doesn't change the fact that I need the medication to be able to function and I have no symptoms of dementia or any other reason not to prescribe Klonopin. I took it for years and could have died from other drugs that were forced on me and turned me into a nonfunctioning zombie my daughter was threatening to put into a nursing home! All is relative and an individual situation and the patients needs should be the most important consideration in my opinion!
