I've been on Klonopin about five years. I've taken anywhere from .5 to 2.0 prn depending on what is happening in my life. My consumption has really varied...I had a lot of days where I didn't take any at all.
My doctor gently mentioned that I might want to get off of it because of cognitive issues. I also, of course, know about the addictive nature of benzos. So I have decided to go off.
I have started by taking 1.0 every day at noon.
I plan to go to .5 next week every day at noon.
I thought I might go every other day at that point for a week and see how I am doing.
I still want to have a "stash" for crisis times, flying, and big car trips where I am scared.
So far I have thought about taking one when my son yelled at me but I didn't. Other than that have not thought about it. I think I'm doing okay so far. We shall see.
