Thanks for that detail, Jake. I have a pressing problem I am looking for feedback about from anyone who feels so inclined: last night I had a huge raft of symptoms (I still haven't started my taper), including muscle spasms, suicidal ideation, jerking of my shoulders, arms, and legs, anxiety, and insomnia. I started to wonder if a.) I have a bad/weak batch of klonopin, thereby producing stronger withdrawal, or b.) if I am having a paradoxical reaction to the klonopin, or c.) I'm not taking enough klonopin. My psychiatrist said he had never heard of those symptoms being from either withdrawal nor paradoxical reaction (oy vey), and that I am in a tailspin (he wants to replace the klonopin asap with an anti-psychotic). Any suggestions?
Many thanks, all!
