I am 81 and I have been on Klonopin for about 15 years and don't want to get off, I have essential Tremor
and it helps me a lot, I see no difference in myself. I take 05 in the morning and 2 1/2 before bed because
I am not a sleeper, all I can say it works, I am not tired when I get up--I just feel normal. what is the reason
you want to get off?

Has your doctor suggested you quit taking your benzo?

I am 73 and have been on 1 mg of Clonazepam for about 15 years and it has worked for me all this time. I thought I should get off of it because of what I’ve read it being addictive but I’ve been fighting depression and anxiety since my teens. My psychiatrist told me I’m considered addicted to it. But now I think at 73 why get off if it works. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Any comments?
