Really pissed at the old pdoc's. They made an addict out of me. I had no idea.

Sorry Bizi - too late for edit button.
I forgot to mention that I also take 2mg or Lorazepam twice a day. This was started IP. So that means I am on 3mg of Clonazepam and 4mg of Lorazepam. Well, I was in the worst state I can ever recall being in so I can't really criticise my pdoc for the doses but, YES, they have to come down to that 2mg Clonaz point as soon as possible. My pdoc will be very helpful with this process.
