In reply to Is there life after Klonopin?, posted by lawrence s. on May 26, 2001, at 0:31:24
Hi Paige and Lawrence,
Please know that Klonopin and any benzodiazepine can be VERY difficult to withdraw from. It is best to taper slowly if you can. I've been off 10 months and am still not to my pre-benzo days yet, but much better. I belong to a support group and it is common to take a long time to recover, but can be done with the right knowledge. Avoid stimulants,sugars and stress if possible. Visit my on line friends website @ www.benzo.org.uk and check out the information.
Good luck to you both, if you have any more questions feel free to write@ the4kerns@aol.com

Will I ever be able to enjoy things like I used to? What non-benzodiazepine medication would be the best to replace klonopin? I have already tried Neurontin with bad results.
