It is probably me. Meds have a habit of stopping working for me very quickly. This is especially true for activating meds. It is frustrating but that's how my brain works so I just have to roll with it.

how much klonipin do you take and when and why are you tapering off of it?
You could be having withdrawl symptoms from that messing with you.

I generally take 0.5mg but at least once a week need to take more due to severe anxiety. I am probably experiencing some withdrawals which is why I am going slow. I am trying to come off it as I have been on benzo's for over 6 years and I am worried about the long-term effects. It is going to be very tough coming off it.

I have done it before (2004) and it was hell, but I came off pretty fast. It took me about 6 months to recover from that. I had bad anxiety and insomnia plus a few other things.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
