Hi I’m new to the community. I saw this post and had to answer. My experience with Klonopin was a good one until I had to come off of it. I was taking .50 for years due to my anxiety. After probably about 5 years I had to increase to .50 twice a day. It didn’t end there my body got so used to taking it because it is very addictive that I actually had to take 1mg twice a day. I know that’s a lot but I was listening to my psychiatrist and she felt it was the right thing to do so I did. If I knew then what I know now I never would have started taking it. My anxiety is under control now and I’m not on any meds at all. Your body gets so used to taking a pill that it craves that pill that’s why she kept increasing. I really hope that you find what works for you and do your research I sure wish I did.

I am the same teake 1 mg up to 3 times a day. coming off so horrible...actually coming off prozac still on Klon...it is hell.

mommaof4 how do you control your Anxiety without medication? How long did it take you to control your Anxiety after coming off the Klonopin?

I’ve decided not to take the Klonopin and stay on my Ativan. I’ve read to many things about all the side effects coming off of it. And that’s the last thing I need since I’m still struggling with all the withdrawals from Lyrica

Yes I’m very interested in what you are doing for anxiety without a little pill to help
