> Sounds like psych care in the UK stinks. Glad we don't have that anti-benzo stuff over here.....my pdoc says she has patients who have been on Klonopin for 15 years without raising the dose, no problem, she can't understand these anti-benzo people, who seem to be rampant in the UK.
Funny you should say that, Joe. I've been taking Klonopin for over a yr now for night-waking. Works great. Never had to increase the dose & can abstain w/o any rebound depression etc. My GP has no problem with it.
So what does this new idiot want to do today? He wants to take me *off* it (I told him where he could get *off*). Don't these people understand how destructive to yr life waking 10 or 20 times a night can be? His reasoning?
"All benzos are very addictive."
