Hi, broken sword. Yes, you should be worried, for those two reasons and hundreds more. I was forced off Klonopin in 2013 and I am still suffering the withdrawals. But I was on them for 30 years, and at times at unbelievably high dosages.

Can you drop your dosages down a bit per day? It's good that you're not taking much but there's still a bad withdrawal risk. Also, can you give up the daily use and hopefully only take it when you are having extremely bad anxiety?
Thanks for this!
