how is your sleep going?
Now I have a new provider and gave me my klonipin back.
you are being very brave in wanting to do this.
I assumed it was your choice or is this your providers decision?

Thank you, bizi. One of my greatest fears has been that a provider would take me off Klonopin with no taper, or too fast of a taper. I'm so sorry you went through that. It's dangerous. I have read many times that Klonopin is more difficult, and much more risky, to stop taking than heroin is. From friends I've had and people I've known I believe it.
My sleep is not good, but I haven't yet cut back on the K-pin. I take a small amount of Seroquel and ZzzQuil to sleep. Those help.
It is my choice. I'm tired of taking a medication that isn't helping me in any way anymore. I would have to take 6mg. of K-pin all at once for it to affect me.
