It's probably depression, anxiety and a bit of benzo withdrawal. Intrusive thoughts are part of all of them. I think that you should still be seen. And Klonopin is a rough drug to come off of. The WD symptoms can fluctuate and keep appearing for years. Especially if you did not taper or cross taper to get off of them. But not all drugs are like that.
I think that you called my post hysterical, it was not, it was completely appropriate to what you were saying. Suicidal thoughts are a serious matter and point to a very dangerous state of mind. inpatient is not the only response to ER psych patients.
