Some people get protracted symptoms for years after coming off of these drugs. Check out the benzobuddies website if you haven't already. They have helped me out.
I wish you the very best in your slow taper. Are you doing the Ashton Method?

When Klonopin was prescribed for me, there did not seem to be any knowledge of the intense addictiveness of the medication, or of withdrawal syndrome.
Yes, benzobuddies is a helpful site. I need to revisit it.
Is the Ashton Method the one in which the patient is prescribed a different benzo to help come off K-pin?
