Good description (sorry you had to go through it) of "JUNKIE-LIKE" withdrawal from Trazadone; that's exactly how I felt withdrawing from Paxil waaaaay too quickly, on the bad advice of a good pdoc.

If or when the time comes, I WILL taper off Klonopin gradually. I'm on a "low" dose (1 mg/day), but have been on the stuff for so long that I think it prudent to taper gradually, like 0.5 for awhile, then maybe even 0.25 for awhile (I have a great pill cutter thingee majig).

Glad to hear that always went off Klonopin, Xanax, Ativan and the like in pretty big drops, over the course of a week, without much of a kickback at all. And I can relate to your saying that you have been more addicted to wheat - no joke here either.
