MaseCase:

I was a clonazepam addict for 10 years. It started off with just .5mg twice a day. By the time I stopped the clona, I was taking well over 10mg a day. I'd sometimes go thru my prescription in a week. I found the problem with clonazepam, is that after you've taken far too much, you don't think you're stoned on them and you think they're having no effect. You feel normal. I would take so many I'd do what you do - and forget I'd taken any, and take more. I didn't notice how bad it was - but other people would think I was drunk cuz I slurred so badly from the clonazepam.

This is a frightening drug. When I stopped, the withdrawal was slow because of its long half-life. But I got really angry. Really frustrated by the simplest things. Very sharp with people (and even rude). Complete inability to eat. Unable to sleep. With my doctor's and a specialist's support, marijuana helped me calm down while detoxing from the clona.

I used to portion my pills each day. I'd put x-number of clonas on the fridge, and when they were gone I knew I hadn't forgotten to take some.

Sending good wishes your way.
