I too am tapering myself off of Klonopin. But, as you mentioned, it must be done slowly!
Klonopin has it's positive side too. It is used to treat sleeplessness addition to moderate to severe anxiety disorders.
Sometimes, I think it gets a bad wrap. Just my opinion.
Hope this helps, Pat

I also think it can be a big help for many people but DEA decided it was evil like opiates and causing addiction/abuse, and made a case to stop prescribing it. It’s very hard to get it now and doctors want you off. they are saying it is especially bad for the elderly, and since I’ll soon be 65, I agreed to get off it. Going very slowly is key.
