I have been on Clonazepam for 9 years. I take it at night to hush all those racing thoughts when I am trying to sleep. I didn’t realize how potent (take 2 mg.at night) Clonazepam was until I forgot 1 dose at night. The following day I was already experiencing withdrawal symptoms, amped anxiety, jittery but exhausted, nausea, restless, and no focus. I kept wanting to chew on my lips and cheeks. Once I took my dose the next night, I felt back to my normal.
I am in it for the long haul. I am 66 and I have not had to change my dose(1.5mg.) in 3years.
