Hi Jinnyann,

Thanks for your response. Oh, I hope it doesn't act upon me the way it did with you....having to keep taking a higher dose to get the same results. I was taking so much clonazepam (approximately 12-14 mg spread out daily), that he was concerned. So he has titrated me down to 6mg daily (it's going to be a REALLY tough month to get through right now), and then put me on the much longer-acting Valium. I just hope I find a reasonable dose that keeps me steady and calm enough when the memories come a-knockin'.

All the benzos are addictive, but if the right dose can be found to help me function better, then I really don't care.

I'm sorry you have to keep raising your dose. What did you start out on, and how much are you on now?

God bless,
Sandy
