Hi,
My pdoc does not like to give klonopin out too much. My previous one did. I've been on it for years, but not every day. Since she is concerned that I need it a few times per week, she said if that does not change, she would switch me from klonopin to buspirone. I am afraid of that and wonder how effective it has been for anxiety? It would likely be something I take at least multiple times per week or maybe daily. My anxiety is really bad. I have thoughts that race, problems socially, my breathing gets heavy at times. They aren't full-blown panic attacks, but typical symptoms that you would see someone with GAD have.

I'd appreciate hearing about others' experiences before making a med change since I'm really nervous about taking away something that works for me. But I can't control that she wants to move away from using the benzos as much. Thanks.
