What would a klonopin addiction look like? Is there a certain amount you have to take? Is it the desire to want to take more than you are prescribed?

Needing to increase your dose, because previous dose isn't as effective it was when started. Getting rebound anxiety that is worse than your original anxiety.
I personally would stay away from those things. __________________ ASD, GAD, ADHD, OCD. BP W/ mixed features Wellbutrin Paroxetine Risperidone Methylphenidate PRN |

Yes, I think it's wanting more and being afraid to get off of it because of terrible withdrawal symptoms. I managed to wean myself off over a long period of time.

I take a very low dose, .5 mg daily . I tried to wean off of it twice but my anxiety got too bad. I also had physical symptoms, headache, stomach problems, severe muscle stiffness. I've never had the desire to take more than prescribed but be careful!

I take .5mg and am allowed 5 a day. I have been taking a little more than that some days. Yesterday I can't remember how many I took. Some days though I will only take one or two.

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