Is anyone still in this group for weaning off Klonipin? Looks like last post was a year ago. Taken benzodiazepines for 14 years and klonipin for 3 years for insomnia. Don’t know what to add to it to wean or else I will be awake for 8 hours.

If I were you I wouldn't start taking something else. I'd cut back very slowly. I was on a massive dose of Klonopin for seizures and I never had a problem getting off of it. Take it EXTREMELY SLOWLY and you won't even know your Klonopin is being decreased.
Take care,
Jake

How much Klonopin have you been taking? Do you take any other drugs?
