I'm still nervous about taking more. She assured me that she wants me to take the increase only through August. I might be all wrong, but it seems like there's a little bit of recognition lately that benzos really can be helpful, after all the benzo-hatred of the past few years.
I sure hope your sleep improves.

sleep is definitely so vital. I just took some klonopin now because I am struggling a bit with daytime anxiety at the moment. I take .5 currently twice a day. benzos do really get a bad rap when they actually help so many people who don't abuse it. my PDoc was very reluctant to give me any but when I told him I almost called 911 because of my panic, he decided to put me on the klonopin. It's working great so far. good luck with your increase, summerfields! thanks for reaching out!
