long term xanax use

I've been tapering off Klonopin for 7 months, down from 1-1.5mg per night to .25mg. I reduce every 6-8 weeks. This last taper to .25mg has been the hardest one and I think I will need to reduce once more to .0125mg before going completely off. But I am doing it and can see the finish line and I need to do this to heal my brain. I've done this under psychiatric care. Good luck and get help to do it very slowly to minimize withdrawal symptoms. It has not been fun, but has not been awful either.

thanks for your experience - i tapered off once before and the side effects were awful - i think it may have been too quick a taper - did your psychiatrist replace it with somthing else? Mine is trying to get me to take an ssri for anxiety to help with the taper?
