My psychiatrist told me years ago, when he first prescribed clonazepam, that I should never take more than 2mg in a 24 hour period or I should stop it. I took him seriously and took 1mg - occasionally a .5mg if I was wide awake at 2 or 3am. I set that boundary. When I moved to GA from FL and got a new doctor, she lectured me profoundly on the risks of benzos. She challenged me to decrease my Rx, which I did. Eventually, she moved out of state and the new doctor refused to prescribe them. Sent me to a psychiatrist - young and just out of med school and he was on a mission to get me benzo free. It has been a long road and not pleasant.
